In the Kitchen - Visions of Media Art 10
The exhibition series Visions of Media Art takes ideas and attitudes of historical artisttic figures as inspiration for current artistic positions. In 2021, Steina and Woody Vasulka will be the key figures for this project. Their formative work as video art pioneers and founders of the legendary New York art laboratory The Kitchen has an unbroken impact on contemporary media art. For the exhibition In The Kitchen, the “Digital Art” class at the University of Applied Arts enters into a dialogue with their work. Under the guiding principle of the dissolution of conventional space and time perception, shifted perspectives and the entanglement of real and virtual space, the work of teachers and students force us to rearrange our previously learned listening and viewing habits as well as our idea of gravity. A "disorientation" in the sense of the techno-poetic visionary power of the Vasulkas.
