How Video Transformed the World","description":"\u003cp\u003eVideo is everywhere today—on our phones and screens, defining new spaces and experiences, spreading memes, lies, fervor, and power. Shared, sent, and networked, it shapes public opinion and creates new publics. In other words, video has transformed the world. Bringing together a diverse range of work from the past six decades, \u003cem\u003eSignals\u003c\/em\u003e reveals the ways in which artists have posed video as an agent of global change—from televised revolution to electronic democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exhibition highlights over 70 media works, drawn primarily from MoMA’s collection, with many never before seen at the Museum. Featured artists include John Akomfrah, Gretchen Bender, Dara Birnbaum, Tony Cokes, Amar Kanwar, New Red Order, Nam June Paik, Sondra Perry, Martine Syms, Stan VanDerBeek, and Ming Wong. \u003cem\u003eSignals\u003c\/em\u003e enables audiences to experience video art’s wildly varied formats, settings, and global reach, from closed-circuit surveillance to viral video, from large-scale installation to social networks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith this broad range of forms and media, artists have championed and questioned the promise of video. Some have hoped to create entirely new networks of communication, democratic engagement, and public participation. Others have protested the rise of commercial and state control over information, vision, and truth itself. \u003cem\u003eSignals\u003c\/em\u003e focuses on the ways in which artists have used video to ask urgent questions about society and propose new models of public life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[publisher's note ]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MoMA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57357890388308,"sku":"A8B-31949","price":50.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1072\/9609\/6596\/files\/Nume_CC_81riser_2051.jpg?v=1790813325","url":"https:\/\/after8books.com\/products\/signals-how-video-transformed-the-world","provider":"After 8 Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
