The Greater Cloud

December 10th 2011 - February 5th 2012 — FINAL WEEK open until February 5. The Greater Cloud is a show in which the Internet as a platform, medium or subject matter functions as a source of inspiration for artists and influences their artistic practice. The Internet has become banal and ubiquitous. Starting point for this exhibition is what this means for a younger generation of artists and curators.

Intro 

Works

 

As a consequence of internet's characteristics and practice, that are based on sharing, distribution and circulation, The Greater Cloud is not only curated by NIMk's curator Petra Heck, but co-curated by the artists/curators Aleksandra Domanovic, Oliver Laric, and Katja Novitskova.

 

The artists included don't only make digital or online work, but work multidisciplinary producing sculptures, video's, photo prints, installations or texts.
