Antelman creates collage-like videos that pull from a well of sources, including scenarios about rewilding the American West, ideas of techno-animism, and early reconnaissance images from outer space. Crafted from unexpected juxtapositions, her often foreboding filmic compositions decode what it means to exist in a networks system.<\/p>\n<p>In the third floor gallery, Antelman debuts the namesake video installation <em>Disassembler<\/em>, newly commissioned by Pioneer Works and co-produced by the National Museum of Contemporary Art, Athens (EMST). Titled after a computer tool that translates machine code into assembly language for humans to understand, the piece raises questions about the physical and psychological impact of automation processes on the individual and society. <em>Disassembler <\/em>confronts a post-automated experience, where bodies and gestures return to an organic, experiential world.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, three video sculptures will be exhibited in the second floor gallery, including <em>The Wild West <\/em>(2017), <em>Stones Make The Rivers Move <\/em>(2016), and <em>Darth Vader <\/em>(2014). As a whole, Antelman\u2019s installations bring together the cerebral with the comic, and the alarming with the absurd in an attempt to suggest new meanings and raise new questions. <em>Disassembler <\/em>points toward the grasp of the unthinkable, the moment where our ability to reasonably understand reality collapses.<\/p>\n<p>Maria Antelman: <em>Disassembler <\/em>is produced by the Onassis Foundation USA.<\/p>\n<p>About the Artist<\/p>\n<p>Maria Antelman (b. 1971, Athens, Greece) is a video artist based in New York.
