Curator Jamie Hahn states that “Still/Moving is an exhibition offering a historical perspective between still and moving images by showing a progression between analog film, digital video, electronic lens-based media and new media technologies. From still-capture, using a camera to record and freeze movement, to a moving sequence of images recorded with analog film and digital video methods, the artists make tangible the seemingly mysterious and sometimes misunderstood art that can be defined as New Media.â€
Still/Moving, Framing New Media will feature video, projected works, installations, and printed materials. Truly a variety of visual experiences for every visitor.
The CVA Gallery Hours: Tuesday – Thursday, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., Friday 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
This exhibit is free and open to the public and has been brought to you with support from the Ohio Arts Council.
