Adam Chodzko - artist's talk - Digiville

About

Adam Chodzko's art proposes new relationships between our value and belief systems, between the community and private spaces that generate these systems, and between the documents and fictions that describe and guide them. Working directly with the people and places that surround him, Chodzko focuses on culture's edges, endings, displacements and disappearances in an active looking in the 'wrong' place. Through this he catalyses a collective wondering: how can we engage with the existence of others? And, what might reality become if we turn our attention to this? Chodzko will be talking about his work, and its relationship to technology, as well as his wider practice at Digiville. He currently has a solo show at Tate St Ives, and is renowned internationally for the work he makes, since 1991 Chodzko has exhibited extensively in international solo and group exhibitions: Venice Biennale; Royal Academy, London; Deste Foundation, Athens; PS1, NY; Ikon Gallery, Birmingham, and Kunstmuseum Luzern. 17 July 08 Doors and Bar: 6.30pm (Cocktail Happy Hour from 6.30pm) Event: 7.30pm At: Lighthouse, 28 Kensington Street, Brighton FREE http://www.lighthouse.org.uk
