Exhibition catalogue - $ 5.00
Post Digital Painting

The world is undergoing a seismic technological transformation that is radically altering our perception. The low tech medium of painting has had to retool itself to keep pace with this evolving condition.

In "Post-Digital Painting" the artists' methodologies of inscribing the digital perspective onto the painted surface displays the multivalent and fluctuating nature of information space and it's virtual terrain.

The 64 pages of this catalogue are profusely illustrated in color, with essays by curator Joe Houston that reveal the artists' new perceptual paradigm of the digital. Scott Anderson, Phillip Argent, Alex Brown, Benjamin Edwards, Chris Finley, Beverly Fishman, Carl Fudge, Dan Hays, Yeardley Leonard, Randy Wray, Amy Yoes and Peter Zimmerman are the twelve artists whose work explores this new medium. This exhibit was on view at Cranbrook Art Museum December 14, 2002 to March 23, 2003.
