28 Sept 2018 – 25 Nov 2018
Exhibition 'Strata-Rock-Dust-Stars' in York Art Gallery
Strata, Rock, Dust, Stars will showcase ground-breaking moving image, new media and interactive artwork inspired by William Smith’s geological map, which transformed the way in which the world was understood when it was created 200 years ago.
The artists, Isaac Julien, Agnes Meyer-Brandis, Semi Conductor, Phil Coy, Liz Orton, David Jacques and Ryoichi Kurokawa, examine not only geological strata, but also explore a timely and contemporary poetic layering of human curiosity, exploration and reflection on the universe.
Co-commissioned between York Museums Trust and York Mediale, and curated by Mike Stubbs, Director of FACT, Liverpool.
