Gary Hill: Art of Limina April 23, 2009

Since the late 1970's, Gary Hill has created poetic and fantastic works that involve a simultaneity of text and image, reconceptualizing the image as a sort of semiotic construction. This new anatomy of word and image is often produced through transparency effects and layering techniques that bypass the typical reliance on collage in the work of video artists such as Nam Jun Paik. This exhibition will consist of new and reformulated installations by Mr. Hill, accompanied by a newly commissioned essay by collaborating artist/critic George Quasha, founding editor of Station Hill Books.
