Andrew Haik Demirjian Reception

The event takes place at the Clocktower Gallery in Tribeca on Tuesday, January 29, 2013 at 6pm, no admittance after 7pm. RSVP is required to events@artonair.org Andrew Haik Demirjian is a media artist who explores relationships between consciousness and environment through non-fiction audiovisual production. He combines computer programming, conceptual art practices and musical forms to create systems that dynamically grow and change based on user input or self-reflection. The work draws upon his experience as a filmmaker and musician and uses juxtaposition and categorization in place of conventional narrative arcs. For his residency open house Andrew will be showing multi-channel excerpts of the Grand Canyon work as well as recent iPad interfaces for experimental documentaries and javascript text pieces. The studios of Richard Garet and Heather Dewey-Hagborg will be on view along with long term exhibits and our newly restored galleries. New exhibitions in those galleries open Feb. 5, 2013.
