World on a Wire · Group exhibition

bitforms gallery is pleased to announce a summer group exhibition that features the work of seven artists: Marco Brambilla, Daniel Canogar, Yael Kanarek, Tim Knowles, Mark Napier, Casey Reas, and Marina Zurkow. Borrowing its title from World on a Wire, Rainer Fassbinder's 1973 sci-fi film set in a cybernetics and futurology lab, the exhibition explores behavioral complexity, madness and simulation. Three New York debuts are featured: Mark Napier's net.flag containing nearly 23,000 flags created by visitors to the net.flag website, Marina Zurkow's The Thirsty Bird, an ecologically-charged animation, and Marco Brambilla's RPM, a psychological video portrait of a Formula One driver's point-of-view.
