Zusammenfassung:Throughout her five-decade career, New York?based artist Dara Birnbaum (born 1946) has relentlessly dissected the process of watching and has argued against the passive absorption of mass media, information and ideology, through various techniques?many of which can be described as subversive reactions or reversals. As media itself has evolved over the years, from the monolithic nature of TV broadcast networks to the Internet?s decentralization of information, Birnbaum?s work has remained consistently prescient and vital, incorporating new technologies and providing a touchstone for generations of younger artists.0Including original scholarship by leading critics and curators of moving image and media art, this book examines Birnbaum's key works and concepts to illustrate how much her practice has to teach in a technology and media laden culture that demands constant participation and response.00Exhibition: CCS Bard, Annandale-on-Hudson, USA (25.06. - 27.11.2022) / Miller Institute of Contemporary Art, Pittsburgh, USA (08.-12.2022)
"Throughout her career, Birnbaum has dissected the process of "watching" and queried--sometimes in strident terms--the passive absorption of mass media, information, and ideology. As media evolved over the years--from the monolithic nature of television broadcast networks to the Internet's present decentralization of information--Birnbaum's work has remained consistently prescient and vital, incorporating new technologies and providing a touchstone for generations of younger artists. This book will examine key works to explore how they have illuminated media and culture at their moment of making and how they continue to inform present critical thinking around "watching" technology, culture, and the dynamics of popular culture."--
