Rhizome will have a booth at this week's Armory Show, please drop by! We'll be at Pier 94, in booth L-26. We'll be selling editions, unique works and animated gifs to benefit Rhizome. Artists include: Harm van den Dorpel, Sara Ludy, Takeshi Murata, Seth Price, Anne de Vries and Rafaël Rozendaal. The Armory Show is open from Noon to 8pm March 3-5th, and then from Noon to 7pm on March 6th.
Treating Youtube as an archive, a series of video and photo-based works that appropriate amateur images posted online, reconstructing how image posting and “response”—and the online communities dedicated to their propagation— performs the mass-identified narrative of individualism that capitalism proposes. The "My Way" videos cathect issues of gender-specificity, sexual orientation, race, globalization and marketing within the larger codings of belonging and isolation, sameness and difference this vast aggregation of online video documents evokes.

On view through April 4 at PS1 as part of "The Talent Show"
