GROUP SHOW "ELECTRIC DREAMS: ART AND TECHNOLOGY BEFORE THE INTERNET."

DATE: FROM 28 NOVEMBER 2024 TO 1 JUNE 2025

VENUE: TATE MODERN, BANKSIDE, LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM

In November, the Tate Modern will be exhibiting Environnement Chromointerférent (Paris, 1974/2017) by Cruz-Diez.

 

The work, which was recently showed at the Patinoire Royale in Brussels, will be on view for seven months as part of the exhibition Electric Dreams: Art and Technology Before The Internet.

 

The show will explore how artists envisioned the future using machines and algorithms to create mesmerizing and mind-bending art from the 1950s to the early 1990s. A celebration of the early innovators of optical, kinetic, programmed, and digital art.

The latter are evolving works; they are aerial projections of moving lattices of light, in such a way that everything is transfigured, everything loses its materiality, and we become, simultaneously, authors and actors. It is a double dialogue of transfiguration where everything that was static turns to motion.
