The New Media Gallery is exploring balance, causality and choice in a new exhibition opening this week.
BRINK, a group exhibition, opens with a reception on Friday, Feb. 24 from 7 to 10 p.m. Artist Stefan Tiefengraber will be on hand for a talk to start the evening.
The exhibition then runs from Saturday, Feb. 25 to Sunday, April 30.
The group exhibition features artists who work across disciplines – in video and sculptural, electronic media.
“Electronic media and robotic works, as well as a large-scale video installation, establish fragile equilibriums,” a press release says. “There are ambiguous tensions here; between freedom of choice and its repercussions; between what we understand as success, failure or stasis. Works teeter, circle and quiver in the balance. The timing and outcome of what might happen next; the resolution we hope for (the resolution we fear) leaves us on the brink.”
The exhibition includes the work of five artists: Miguel Angel Rios of Argentina, Nelmarie Du Preez of South Africa, David Bowen and Jacob Tonski of the U.S.A., and Tiefengraber, who’s from Austria.
The New Media Gallery is at Anvil Centre, 777 Columbia St. For more information, call 604-875-1865 or see www.newmediagallery.ca.
