Videosphere:a New Generation

Videosphere: A New Generation es la primera exposición de obras en nuevos medios que proceden exclusivamente de la colección de la Albright-Knox Art Gallery (Buffalo, Nueva York). La muestra reúne a 26 artistas internacionales reconocidos, entre ellos el chileno Gianfranco Foschino, con su video La Fenetre (2008)

Gianfranco Foschino, La Fenetre, 2008, HDV video, 14 minutos

Los artistas de esta exhibición van desde nuevos talentos hasta pioneros en el campo, incluyendo a Cory Arcangel, Jeremy Blake, Phil Collins, Condon Brody, James Drake, Isaac Julien, Bruce Nauman, João Onofre, Kelly Richardson y Peter Sarkisian. Sus obras se soportan -o combinan- en el video, el cine , la animación por computador y la reutilización y modificación de la vieja tecnología.

Las obras presentadas en esta exposición se refieren a temas sociales, políticos, psicológicos y ambientales, y crean relatos convincentes que sólo se pueden lograr a través de estos variados pero distintos medios.

Participan Brian Alfred, Cory Arcangel, Jeremy Blake, Phil Collins, Brody Condon, Edith Dekyndt, James Drake, Gianfranco Foschino, Isaac Julien, Sarah Morris, Bruce Nauman, João Onofre, Julian Opie, Tony Oursler, Orit Raff, Alan Rath, Jaye Rhee, Kelly Richardson, Peter Sarkisian, Shahzia Sikander, John F. Simon, Jr., Michael Snow, Jennifer Steinkamp y Bill Viola.
