“I tried to get this image printed on a t-shirt but the company called, was very confused and even thought their software was having a bug. We are trained to think very much in categories and only can imagine the expected. dada is a great example for a movement breaking boundaries of all kinds, tossing the unexpected over the audience. startup approved! Let s make a t-shirt!” Aram Bartholl, 2016

 
Aram Bartholl‘s work creates an interplay between internet, culture and reality. How do our taken-for-granted communication channels influence us? Bartholl asks not just what humans are doing with media, but what media is doing with humans. Tensions between public and private, online and offline, techno-lust and everyday life are at the core of his work and his public interventions and installations, often entailing surprisingly physical manifestations of the digital world, challenge our concepts of reality and incorporeality. Bartholl has exhibited at MoMA Museum of Modern Art NY, the Pace Gallery NY and London’s Hayward Gallery as well as conducting countless workshops, talks and performances internationally. Bartholl lives and works in Berlin.

“What is it that is missing in all of us? Is it “imagination”, “dialectical reasoning” or something else? In celebrating Dada’s spirit of provocation, I name this work after a project that I’ve been mulling over for some time. It has to do with the potential offered by 3D animation in creating work with the combined powers of fact and speculative fiction. I am interested in challenging, instigating, agitating, and ultimately animating, THOUGHT through ACTION. This work is the precursor to the upcoming series under this same title” Alysse Stepanian

“Ha notato che siamo circondati da un mare di occhi attenti, Poedadata mischia pensieri e sensazioni con colori brillanti

他注意到我们被大海高度警觉的目光环视, 波艾达达塔 它伴着明亮的颜色融合了思想与感觉

He noticed we’re surrounded by a sea of gazing eyes, Poedadat has bright colours to keep together thoughts and vibes” Eva Macali
