Public lecture (in Englisch) Suzanne Treister (London): Beyond the Search Engine

KHM
From Fictional Video Game Stills to Time Travelling with Rosalind Brodsky.
11.12.08
20:00h
Aula
Suzanne Treister (b.1958 London UK) studied at St Martin's School of Art, London (1978-1981) and Chelsea College of Art and Design, London (1981-1982), is now  based in London having lived in Australia, New York and Berlin. Primarily a painter through the 1980s, Treister was a pioneer in the digital/new media/web based field from the beginning of the 1990s, developing fictional worlds and international collaborative organisations. Treister's practice deals with notions of identity, history, power and the hallucinatory. Her investigations into the life and research of the fictional character Rosalind Brodsky, most recently explored in the multi-venue project, HEXEN 2039, were described by Art in America as 'One of the most sustained fantasy trips of contemporary art', which belies a deeper mission: to explore how we make sense of history and the politics of war. Treister will be speaking about these and also more recent projects which include: Nato, Alchemy, CORRESPONDENCE: From Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, War Artists and PSI_NET.

Recent exhibitions from 2006 include: 3 Projects, Annely Juda Fine Art, London; Alchemy P.P.O.W., New York, USA; Alma Enterprises, London; Tate Britain, London; HEXEN2039 across London at: CHELSEA space, Warburg Institute, Ognisko Polskie, Science Museum, British Museum, Dana Centre. Skolská 28, Prague; Künstlerhaus Bethanien, Berlin; New Art Gallery, Walsall, England; Kunstverein Langenhagen, Germany; Basekamp, Philadelphia, USA; Galerie Lorenz, Frankfurt, Germany.
Recent publications include: HEXEN 2039 new military-occult technologies for psychological warfare, Black Dog Publishing, London, 2006; NATO The Military Codification System for the Ordering of Everything in the World, Black Dog  Publishing, London, 2008.
