[1]

Curated by Keehnan Konyha and Jacob Gaboury. "TROLL is a group exhibition to examine the act of trolling as a sexual, cultural, and ethical practice. To troll is to sift through image and text, filtering and re-contextualizing subject-significant objects; it is a baiting and malicious comment made behind the anonymity of the Web, soliciting argument for the purpose of producing breakdown and chaos; it is a sexual practice, to cruise for sex, to seek partners anonymous or otherwise." Featured Kai (Kari) Altmann's "Hhellblauu", a performative printout of an online project made on request for the show.
  • Exhibition One, Chrystal Gallery & Gentili Apri, Berlin, 6-7 Oct 2010. Works by Kai (Kari) Altmann, Charles Broskoski, Lindsay Lawson, Billy Rennekamp, Maxwell Simmer, Harm Van Den Dorpel. Curated by Timur Si-Qin. "Extracting a parallel instance of the work as a three-dimensional representation of geometric data, Exhibition One offers an opportunity to present an alternate framework that posits the questions: Where does an artwork stop and its documentation begin? What is the function of a prospective image that is decisively not-a-model?" [2]

The artist Seth Price's essay “Dispersion” serves as touchstone for this exhibition." Interview with curator (Hyperallergic). Review: Rosenberg (NYT). [3] [4]

  • Stone Sky Over Thingworld, Bitforms Gallery, New York City, 2 Jun-29 Jul 2011. Works by Michelle Ceja, Brenna Murphy, Jon Rafman, Artie Vierkant. Curated by Claudia Hart. "The relatedness of style and discourse [of these artists] emerges from ... their educations, the function of the Internet as a system of distribution and communication, – and ultimately, their shared attitudes and digital strategies."
  • R-U-In?S Underground Economies, Atelier 35, Bucharest, 10 Jun 2011. Works by Kai (Kari) Altmann, Iain Ball, Matteo Giordano, Sam Hancocks and Sebastian Moyano. Curated by Kai (Kari) Altmann, Matei Samihaian and Silvia Saitoc. "Images and objects pulled into a communal blackmarket of critical attitudes."

Works by Aram Bartholl, Artie Vierkant, Coralie Vogelaar & Teun Castelein, Dennis de Bel, Jeremy Wood, JODI, Juliette Bonneviot, Kai (Kari) Altmann, Constant Dullaart. "The starting point for the project is the fact that the analog and digital are now so closely interwoven. ... The exhibition centers on a generation of artists dealing with themes such as (digital) decay and the continuous processing of vast amounts of information. They all share an interest in the creation of new databases at the interface of the physical object and immaterial digital culture."

Selected by Robert O. Fitzpatrick. "The artists have worked together to place their work atop of, directly aside, or obtrusively in front of one another. ... These 'object hybrids' confront how the status quo methodology for curating group exhibitions (via fixed positions in physical display) is confronted by near-instantaneous peer-to-peer sharing of image, text, media and knowledge content between artists." Reviews: McGarry (Artforum), Sanchez (Artforum).

"For this generation [of image-makers] traditional boundaries between object, action, and documentation has fully dissolved, leading to a set of working methods that can be seen as truly post-medium. ... The works exist equally as objects in gallery space and images in circulation." [7] [8]

Curated by Ceci Moss and Tim Steer. "The object that exists in motion spans different points, relations and existences but always remains the same thing.

Its title refers to the Internet as a vortex of images, a site of piracy, and a system of networks." Reviews: NYT, Woodward (WSJ], Wolukau-Wanambwa (Aperture). Interview with curator. [11]
