Rafael Lozano-Hemmer
Artist's Talk
Rafael Lozano-Hemmer
Thursday 14 June 2007, 18.30–20.00
Mexican-Canadian artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer (b1967) presents his
recent interactive art installations, including Wavefunction a kinetic
sculpture premiered at the Venice Biennale 2007, and the large public
art project Under Scan which toured the East Midlands in 2006.
Lozano-Hemmer creates platforms for public participation by perverting
technologies such as robotics, computerised surveillance or telematic
networks. Inspired by phantasmagoria, carnival and animatronics,
Lozano-Hemmer describes his huge light and shadow works as 'anti
monuments for alien agency'.
