Joy Garnett is a painter based in New York. She appropriates news images from the Internet and re-invents them as paintings. Her subject is the apocalyptic-sublime landscape, as well as the digital image itself as cultural artifact in an increasingly technologized world. Her image research has resulted in online documentation projects, most notably The Bomb Project. Notable past exhibitions include her recent solo shows at Winkleman Gallery, New York and at the National Academy of Sciences, Washington, DC; group exhibitions organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art, P.S.1/MoMA Contemporary Art Center, Artists Space, White Columns (New York), Kettle's Yard, Cambridge (UK), and De Witte Zaal, Ghent (Belgium). She is represented by Winkleman Gallery, New York City. extended network > homepage: http://joygarnett.com flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/newsgrist/sets/ myspace: http://www.myspace.com/newsgrist websites/online projects: Out of the Blue http://outoftheblueproject.org The Bomb Project http://www.thebombproject.org First Pulse Projects http://firstpulseprojects.net blogs: NEWSgrist - where spin is art http://newsgrist.typepad.com/ Strange Weather http://StrangeWeather.info
