The country, created by partition in 1947, constitutes the second largest Muslim population in the world.

This exhibition, curated... [more]

The Ratio

There is a ratio I used to hear a lot as a student, that what you put in is what you get out.

This updated ratio—(Effort + Risk) / time = Interest rate on Results—is helpful to keep in mind when engaging documents and vestiges of durational action and live even... [more]

One can choose from a number of costumes and stand in front of a green screen answering a question randomly selected from a deck of cards. The new footage is added to the already existing clips, which loop on multiple television screens and projectors that fill the adjacent gallery.

The Pictures Generation, 1974–1984 is the first major museum exhibition to focus on a highly influential group of somewhat affiliated artists that were one of the first generations raised with popular television and an abundance of disposable products. This upbringing, coupled with the rising popularity of M.F.A. academic training that often discussed Barthian post-structuralism, produced a generation of artists wanting to deconstruct visual culture by appropriating its...

"Cognition Factor" is the brainchild of the South African filmmaker and cyberpunk Mike Kawitzky. In 64 minutes of documentary Katwitzky manages to evoke some intriguing thoughts from roughly twenty great thinkers revolving around five questions; Is humanity evolving towards something higher or are we doomed to extinction?
