A fifteen year retrospective of bitforms? Here in SF? I’m way too lucky. Anyone up for popping by the reception with me? There’ll be work by Jeffrey Blondes, Daniel Canogar, R. Luke DuBois, Claudia Hart, Yael Kanarek, Beryl Korot, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Sara Ludy, Manfred Mohr, Jonathan Monaghan, Mark Napier, Tristan Perich, Quayola, Casey Reas, Daniel Rozin, Björn Schülke, Siebren Versteeg, Addie Wagenknecht, Marina Zurkow, and Zimoun. I’m not sure how this happened, but you should take some time to visit the Minnesota Street Project in San Francisco CA, USA to see the show.

Ragnar Kjartansson @ Hirshhorn 10/14/16-1/18/17

DC

I’m spending a non-trivial amount of time trying to figure out how to make it to DC before this closes. If you’re on the east coast? Bolt Bus is cheap, you better make it to Ragnar Kjartansson at the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington DC, USA. Honestly, The Visitors alone is enough for me to list it, it’s one of my most favorite pieces of video art ever made.

Tom Sachs – SPACE PROGRAM: EUROPA @ YBCA SF 9/18/16-1/15/17

San Francisco

I’m so thrilled that this opened near me. I’ve gone to visit Tom’s space program probably 10-15 times since the show opened, and there’s so much to take in.

Anyhow, dry details follow. SPACE PROGRAM: EUROPA is showing at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco CA, USA. Not only do you need to go, but if you’re planning a trip, hit me up. I’d love to be your guide, and I’m happy to send you some pre–requisite videos.
