INTERREALITY
October 14, 2023 - March 18, 2024
INTERREALITY, curated by artist and former Night Gallery co-owner Mieke Marple, bridges the traditional and digital art worlds through the presentation of works that span the physical-to-digital spectrum. The exhibition is produced by Steven Sacks, founder and director of bitforms gallery, and Aubrie Wienholt, founder of Wienholt Projects and PR for Artists, and is on view October 14, 2023 - March 18, 2024
Following LACMA’s exhibition Coded: Art Enters the Computer Age, 1952-1982, earlier this summer, conversations around technology’s influence on art-making have never been more pressing and relevant. INTERREALITY enters this discourse with an expansive 35 artist group exhibition in a 15,000 square feet space at Desmond Tower, only a few blocks away from LACMA, to examine how the physical and digital, once perceive as separate realities, have in fact always been and will continue to be entangled.

INTERREALITY includes renowned digital artists such as pioneering artificial intelligence artist Refik Anadol (whose very popular solo show at MOMA NY has been extended until October 2023) and established traditional artists such as Mark Flood (whose paintings respond to internet culture and whose work is in the collection of MOMA Fort Worth). The exhibition also features work by artists whose practices are heavily analog, such as Cindy Phenix, and primarily digital, such as Alida Sun, in order to capture the entire physical-to-digital spectrum.

About Preston Douglas Boyer
Preston Douglas Boyer (b.1995) is a multidisciplinary artist who works between painting, fashion, and performance, whose work considers how these forms are physical manifestations of the spiritual journey. His paintings are both remnants of performances and starting points for installations, addressing how surfaces can allude to both beauty and darkness through examining contemporary cultural conviction.
