NO THERE THERE
January 24 – February 21, 2015 at Transfer Gallery
NO THERE THERE is an exhibition of new work from Brooklyn-based artist Jamie Zigelbaum that explores the materiality of the digital image. This exhibition begins with two of the artist’s earlier works Pixel and Six-Forty by Four-Eighty but moves beyond Zigelbaum’s interest in the “recontextualization of the pixel” to question the role of the screen itself — moving images are programmatically constructed and displayed in unconventional formats, hardware is sliced and exposed, and interactive artworks engage the viewer in reconsidering the false dichotomy of the natural and the digital.
