We are delighted to announce the next Furtherfield exhibition - Monsters of
the Machine at LABoral in Spain.
A contemporary take on Mary Shelley?s Frankenstein, this exhibition invites
us to reconsider her warning, that scientific imagining and all technologies
have unintended and dramatic consequences for the world.
Shelley?s classic novel has inspired millions since it was written 200 years
ago. It offers a lens through which to look at the practices of arts and
sciences today and how they shape society?s relationship with technology.
Curated by Marc Garrett, Monsters of the Machine features artworks by: [AOS]
Art is Open Source, Cristina Busto, Equipo Sauti ya wakulima, Mary Flanagan,
Carla Gannis, Genetic Moo, Fernando Gutierrez, Lynn Hershman Leeson, Shu Lea
Cheang, Gretta Louw & Warnayaka Art Centre, Regina de Miguel, Joana Moll &
Cedric Parizot, Guido Segni, Karolina Sobecka, Alan Sondheim, Thomson &
Craighead
