Early Installation -- SuttonBeresCuller: Panoptes

SuttonBeresCuller: Panoptes
East Gallery
October 2, 2010 -- February 13, 2011

As part of the spirited exhibition Vortexhibition Polyphonica, artists SuttonBeresCuller will create an interactive installation that will invite viewers, both on-site and online, to engage with the Henry's collection in an entirely new way. For the Henry's East Gallery, the three artists will select an array of paintings, prints, photographs, and other two-dimensional and three-dimensional works from the museum's collection that the Henry team will install "salon style," covering the walls floor to ceiling. In front of this multi-faceted presentation, a custom-made apparatus will transport a high definition camera along the x- and y-axes of this grid-like installation. At a viewing station in the Stroum Gallery, visitors can steer the camera remotely, selecting and zooming in on details of works in the East Gallery. These details are viewed in this space and uploaded to the Web for others to see. Over the course of the exhibition, selections will be tracked and recorded, to form a culminating, and cumulative, work of art.
Organized for the Henry by Associate Curator Sara Krajewski. This artist project is made possible with generous support from the Harpo Foundation.
