Binding: PaperbackDewey Decimal Number: 708 EAN: 9783936646863 Edition: Bilingual ISBN: 3936646864 Label: Kerber Manufacturer: Kerber Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 120 Publication Date: March 15, 2005 Publisher: Kerber Release Date: March 15, 2005 Studio: Kerber Editorial Review: Product Description: Twenty-five years ago, a firewall was a real, tangible wall used to prevent the spread of fire. Today, it is a virtual protection system in an electronic data system. In Firewall, the exhibition, the term is used in a figurative and metaphorical sense to discuss the security problems associated with the increasing digitization of our world. This catalogue showcases the exhibition works of eight artists--six of whom created new works for Firewall--all of which reflect on the protective and unsettling factors associated with living in today's surveillance society. With innovative, cutting-edge, technology-inspired design, this catalogue thoroughly delves into the works of Jonas Dahlberg, Andreas K pnick, Julie Mehretu, Aernout Mik, Julia Scher, Markus Vater, Magnus Wallin, and Johannes Wohnseifer. |
