Collision5, The Next Dimension
Compton Gallery
April 27 - May 11

Part of the Boston Cyberarts Festival

What happens when art collides with technology? A hands-on, minds-on exhibit featuring many forms of technological art, including kinetic sculpture, computer graphics and games, interactive installations, digital audio and video, and robots. The technology of Collision 5 brings the art closer to viewers, stimulating them to touch, affect, and experience the works as serious and fun and meaningful. Artists include Jonathan Bachrach, Henry Kaufman, Brian Knep, Dan Paluska, Amanda Parkes, Hayes Raffle, and Fran Trainor.

"The art in the Collision shows appeals to people on so many different levels. I think many people are frustrated by the sterility of untouchable paintings in whitewashed galleries. Most of the technology used in the Collision shows is technology that brings the art closer to the viewer and allows the viewer to participate in a way they never have before. It allows them to touch, to effect, to experience."
— Dan Paluska, co-curator, ATat founder

 

 


Work Sketch, Tichener

 

 

"I am very excited about the combined artistic and technical talent represented in this show. The C3D works are fresh, evocative, and challenging. C3D will be a great show for people curious about the boundaries between man and machine and between art and science, and more generally interested in the future of art itself. "
— Jonathan Bachrach, co-curator

 


Healing #2, Brian Knep

 

 

"This is great opportunity to see what's happening at the bleeding edge of both technology and art."
— Brian Knep, co-curator
