Many of the contemporary artworks have been created in the visual language of architectural models, prototypes, or plans, while forward-thinking architectural projects emerge as striking art objects. Exhibition artists include Mark Bennett, Sarah Bostwick, Anthony Discenza, Randy Dixon, Paul de Guzman, Todd Hido, Christian Nguyen, Julia Page, A.G. Rizzoli, Lincoln Schatz, Jackie Sumell in collaboration with Herman Wallace, and Joseph Zirker, while architectural firms include IwamotoScott Architecture and Anderson Anderson Architecture."

Commissioned by collectors and One Arts Plaza developers Lucy and Henry Billingsley, it will be one of the largest interactive video works ever permanently installed in a public space. “From Here” will become a nerve center in the historic revitalization of downtown Dallas, presenting an entirely new approach to public art in which the public itself drives the generative growth of the artwork. In the same way that human memories constantly evolve, “From Here” accrues video images of interactions and recombines them into new meanings onscreen.

bitforms gallery nyc

bitforms gallery nyc is pleased to announce a third solo exhibition of Chicago-based artist Lincoln Schatz. This exhibit marks the New York debut of Schatz's generative multi-channel video installation series. Remarkable in vision and scale, these painterly compositions collapse time, depicting dynamic landscapes and portraits. Visualizing the memory of an environment, these works reconsider fixed notions of history, time and place. Each unique artwork records, stores and displays video that recounts its record of exhibition, building a distinct visible aura.

This past year Schatz has been commissioned to create several large-scale memory video works for permanent exhibition in public spaces. On exhibit at bitforms gallery are previews of two large video commissions, the One Arts Plaza video walls opening in Dallas March 2007, and a four-channel installation for Chicago's Helmut Jahn-designed 600 Fairbanks high-rise opening in October 2007. Opening Reception: bitforms gallery, 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm, Friday, January 26, 2007. Artist Talk with Lincoln Schatz: bitforms gallery, 3:00 pm Saturday, February 24, 2007 Download Press Release
