MAN,
SUCH AS WE KNOW HIM,
IS A COMPUTER
Opening January 20
Synchronicity Space is pleased to announced the exhibition, “Man, Such As We Know Him, Is A Computer,” which will be on display in Mastodon Mesa at the Pacific Design Center from January 20 - February 27. This exhibition showcases artists whose work explores the relationships between technology, the culture of the internet’s past, present and future, and the questionable need for viewing art in the context of a gallery.
The exhibition features an installation by artist, Spencer Longo, transforming the interior of the gallery space to communicate the internet’s ability to transform itself into a physical space. Incorporating sound, projected images as well as pieces on paper to fill the space, the artist seeks for the audience to be viscerally taken over.
The main exhibition showcases a group of artists that make work in different media and multi-media addressing technology in their work. We will be exhibiting an array of work that includes sound, video, websites, drawings, and paintings. With the increasing proliferation of the internet worldwide, we have experienced a global connection and rapid cultural malleability unlike any other time period. These artists have found a way to adapt to the ever-changing current of our technological culture, either by commenting on it or exemplifying its benefits towards the creative process. The exhibition will be on display from January 20 to February 25, 2011.

Rafael Rozendaal
