CURRENT EXHIBITION - New Media Gallery
newmediagallery.ca
The New Media Gallery is contemporary public art gallery devoted to the presentation of international, national and regional new media art.

I just went to see the current exhibition at the New Media Gallery, DUST:

Search and you will find dust woven through the universe; swept up, dispersed and deposited across the globe; collecting in every corner of our lives. All of humanity lives on a fragment of cosmic dust…and we are dust. Visible, invisible, meaningful, reviled; dust has been exploited by artists as material, subject, ontology and here as landscape…full of properties, concepts and relationships and the potential to convey expansive ideas, Dust has been handed down to us through histories, words and images. In this exhibition it is interpreted through complex technologies, data collection, augmented videography and sound. DUST brings together three award-winning artists who have created extraordinary, populated landscapes, each underscored with striking aggregations of sound.

Features 3 artists:

  • Denis Beaubois, No longer Adrift (2013, updated 2023)
  • Herman Kolgen, Dust Surface (2010)
  • Michael Saup, DustVR (2018-2023)

All three are amazing. GO SEE THIS SHOW

Also shout out to Director/Curator Gordan Duggan who was our guide for the show. We try and catch all the shows here and he’s very often the person there, and he’s a great guide and personally excited about all the pieces and artists.

    Gordon & Sarah work so hard for the New Media Gallery. Not only do they source and setup the installations, AND act as guides but also, because every exhibition’s different, they strip the space down to the outer walls and reframe everything between exhibitions to create the appropriate spaces for the exhibits.

    I would never have thought of myself as someone who was into art, least of all modern or new media art, but the New Media Gallery’s a must see for every exhibit and I think pretty much anybody in the Lower Mainland would get something out of anything they put on there.
