WHITNEY: CORY ARCANGEL: PRO TOOLS: OPENS TODAY
Cory Arcangel: Pro Tools
May 26–September 11, 2011
The show is called Pro Tools, and is new work... bronzes, metal sculptures, drawings, photos, self playing bowling games, cell phone signal amps, kinetic sculpture, etc, etc. All of the works featured in the exhibition—ranging from video games, single channel video, kinetic sculpture, and prints, to pen plotter drawings—have been created by means of technological tools with an emphasis on the mixing and matching of both professional and amateur technologies, as well as the vernaculars these technologies encourage within culture at large. Cory Arcangel’s work crosses a range of media, including computer-generated projects, performance, video, installation, music composition, sculpture, and print media.
