The Twilight Of The Idols
15.06.2012 — 22.07.2012
Working with new media, artist Angelo Plessas creates simple interactive animated drawings that exist on the internet in their own right. His practice negates the pumped up hyperactivity of today’s computer animated games technology to offer a more fragmented abstract experience. Utilizing simple shape and subtle electronic sound to represent landscape and characters offers a more contemplative play.
Plessas lives and works in Athens. He has had solo exhibitions at ‘Sketch’ 2005 ,Yama project, Istanbul, Turkey 2007 and has been included in Valencia Biennial 3, 2005 and ‘In Present Tense: Young Greek Artists’, National Museum of Contemporary Art, Athens. Earlier this year he was awarded a ‘Rhizome commission’ for ‘New Museum’, NYC.
