• Thanks to Boston Art Review for including us in their Weekly Art Happenings newsletter!
“GlitchKraft: Allison Tanenhaus + Friends” is a glittering ode to glitch art, the practice of disrupting digital files for aesthetic purposes. Using (and misusing) consumer software, nostalgic electronics, smartphone apps, and AI, the exhibition’s pixel pushers—all in or with ties to the Boston area—embrace error with perception-bending intention. Their trippy collected signals are abuzz with vivid hues, optical illusions, mutated media… and cats.
“GlitchKraft” showcases new-media installations by Allison Tanenhaus, Ben K. Foley, DebStep, J. Bagist, Alex Kittle, Vidumami, Christine Dream, Rudolf Lingens, Sabato Visconti, tvHat, Coolpics.biz, Jame Coyne, Maria Servellón, and Blktrmlne, with a collaborative TV sculpture also featuring w3rmwood, Pea.cok, Roger Maranan, Mr. Improbable, and Nicole Amidon.
Thanks to Helen Popinchalk, Kyle Mendelsohn, Calla Savelson, Kiki Regan, Scott Tougas, and Tom Mallard.
