Pavel Büchler Work from his oeuvre. “Büchler belongs to a generation of artists directly influenced by the discoveries of 1970s conceptual art – or, as he insists, by the creative misunderstandings that conceptual art suffered in translation to the Eastern European cultural and political context. Summing up his own practice as “making nothing happen”, he […]

Sebastien Verdon Work from his oeuvre. “The artist draws on current expectations, general paralysis, creativity and inspiration from which a great instinct for transforming the contemporary melancholy humor singular, that is neither cynical nor just absurd.

Justin Kemp Work from Adding to the Internet “My art is kind of like listening to someone speak with an English accent, because at first, it sounds kind of smart, but after a few minutes it just sounds a little funny.  Sometimes people laugh at someone with an English accent instead of laughing with them, […]

Nathan Hess Work from Craft is Caring “During my childhood, knot tying was almost an object of folklore. I grew up in an industrious and old-fashioned town of 800. Despite the setting, knot tying as a craft unto itself was already a relic of previous generations. While it was required knowledge for my Grandfather, it […]

Clement Valla Work from Bridges. “My work focuses on socio-technical systems that raise a number of interesting questions about authorship and human/computer relationships.
