Art Games
Art Games is a solo exhibition by Patrick LeMieux.
Art Games is a solo exhibition by Patrick LeMieux, an MFA Candidate in Digital Media Arts in the School of Art and Art History. The exhibition features custom video games which explore concepts of mark-making, viewer agency, subjectivity, and game play as critical entryways into the history and production of art. Each video game locates the figure of a seminal artist within the landscape of their own artwork. Modeled after the juxtaposition of Ad Reinhardt's stark, black monochromes and wry, pedagogical comics, the video games stage imaginary confrontations between the artists and their minimal works--interaction signifying interpretation.
This exhibit will be on display from February 16 through March 6, 2009, with a reception held on Thursday, February 19, from 7-9pm.
The exhibit is free and open to the public.
