Cory Arcangel: Adult Contemporary

  • Cory_large

Cory Arcangel rose to art-world fame with his hall-of-mirrors work, which cleverly (and cheekily) reappropriates media to highlight technology's protean relationship with humans. From an existential Super Mario to a subversive shooting game with Pope John Paul II and Warhol as pop-up targets, each of his pieces have been defined by their virtuosity. But in typical Arcangel fashion, the artist's latest act of technical abracadabra, Adult Contemporary, celebrates the "non-expert" use of technology — in short, the human error. Besides a suite of monoprints, the playful and theory-plastered exhibition features two computers in heated conversation, a "handmade hacked" game controller and console, a projection from a VHS tape, and a 16mm film full of dazzling imperfections.
