Lecture by Woody Vasulka

Wednesday, September 18, 1996

Outline

Woody VASULKA is a representative media artist who has been working with images since the 1960s, and who in the 1970s became engaged in early work in computer graphics. In recent years, he has used material discarded by American military research facilities to follow the relation between violence and technology in a series of media installations titled “Brotherhood,” that has been internationally acclaimed. The “Brotherhood” series is scheduled to be shown at ICC in 1998. This will be VASULKA’s first large scale solo exhibition of his installations. As a precursor to this exhibition, VASULKA lectured on his theory of media installations. In the lecture, while acknowledging the undeniable fact that modern technology is essentially violent in nature, he stressed the significance of the installation as a device that can produce more neutral representations.
