AGENCY: THE WORK OF ARTISTS
Enjoy Your Time, a new installation by Connie Samaras. Excerpts from After the American Century (2009), Vast Active Living Intelligence System (2005), Angelic States-Event Sequence (1998-2003)
As an artist, photographer, activist and professor, Connie Samaras addresses a broad range of subjects in her work, including constructions of technology and history.
As part of AGENCY, selections from Samaras' recent photographic series and videos will be on display:
Angelic States—Event Sequence: examines the techno-landscaping of U.S. urban spaces in L.A., New York and Las Vegas
V.A.L.I.S. (Vast Active Living Intelligence System): a National Science Foundation sponsored series of pictures that depict liminal spaces between life support architecture and the extreme environment of the South Pole, Antarctica.
After the American Century: a partial commission by Montalvo, combines photography and a video installation shot in Dubai, U.A.E. investigates speculative landscapes, future imaginaries, and global capitalism.
