CYBORGS: Ancient & Current, Imagining & Performing Exhibition & Performance series. February 7th – 28th CAD North Dedicated to the legacy of the Russian Avant-Garde, CYBORGS: Ancient & Current, Imagining & Performing plunges into poetic dialogues with machines from the 21st century. This exhibition explores the aesthetic modalities of artificial intelligence, its various embodiments and temporalities. Musing with ideas of identity, labor, circuitry and mediation, artists in the show engage digital fabrication, simulated poetry, virtual reality, robotic materiality and interactive software—producing cyborgs, expressing cyborgs, performing cyborgs and becoming cyborgs. Exhibition curated by CAD studio resident Galina Shevchenko Participating artists & Performers: Kim Alpert, Dani Che, Morgan Green, Kiku Hibino, Clareese Hill, Elizabeth Koprucki, Graham Livingston, Michelle Murphy, Liviu Pasare, Ramin Takloo-Bighash, Erin Schalk, Galina Shevchenko, Nika Synth, Valera and Ane Weiseth Friday, February 7th, 6pm-10pm Opening Reception & Performance Series 1 Elizabeth Koprucki Ane Weiseth Lariel Joy Katie Giritlian Morgan Green Dani Che Galina Shevchenko Ramin Takloo-Bighash Sasha Zvodinsky Friday, February 14th, 6pm-10pm 2nd Friday Reception & Performance Series 2 Performing artists: Elizabeth Koprucki Michelle Murphy Clareese Hill Dani Che Galina Shevchenko Ramin Takloo-Bighash Sasha Zvodinsky Friday, February, 28th 6pm-10pm Closing Reception & Performance Series 3 Performing artists: Kim Alpert Graham Livingston Galina Shevchenko Nika Synth Kiku Hibino Valera
