TIME SHARES |
Organized by Rhizome and co-presented by the New Museum of Contemporary Art
|
Time Shares is a series of online exhibitions dedicated to exploring the diversity of contemporary art based on the Internet.
CURRENT EXHIBIT
Touring Show
Touring Show is an online exhibition of artists' maps and 'virtual tours' of spaces public and private, ranging from the Military Industrial Complex to geographic borders, to the body. The projects mingle investigations of technology's impact on our landscape and the use of technologies to explore and document this terrain. While some of the projects read as interventions, others simply present the information needed to navigate viewers' own subjective tours.

Professional Surfer
organized by Lauren Cornell
Professional Surfer is a group exhibition that considers web browsing
(aka 'surfing') as an art form.
It brings together websites run by individuals and collectives who
re-publish found digital material next to remixed graphics, video,
performance and commentary. Framed as individual artworks, the
websites employ appropriation in ways that are reminiscent of Pop,
video or conceptual art, yet set apart by a deep immersion in their
surrounding digital environment. Presented in blog posts, or across a
series of interlinked web pages, their projects transform the anarchic
territory of the Internet into an aesthetic that could only be borne
out of a territory in which commerce and creativity, amateurs and
professionals, as well as divergent cultures and styles are in
constant flux and uncomfortable proximity.

Faultlines
organized by Lauren Cornell
The works in Faultines consider the desires, fictions and anxieties embedded in online communities, and also reveal how "real-world" issues, such as commerce and international politics, drive relationship in the virtual sphere just as they do offline.
