Dear Spectres,
If you're in, or around, Brighton over the next couple of weeks, do
drop by our new exhibition, "Intuition and Ingenuity" - a show of
artwork celebrating the life of Alan Turing.
THE EXHIBITION
http://www.lighthouse.org.uk/programme/intuition-and-ingenuity
Opening reception: 16 February, 7pm
Exhibition Dates: 17 - 26 February, 11am - 6pm
Venue: Lighthouse, 28 Kensington Street, Brighton, BN1 4AJ
Intuition and Ingenuity is a group exhibition that explores the
enduring influence of Alan Turing, the father of modern computing.
The show is currently touring the UK, and comes to Lighthouse for
Brighton Science Festival, following rave reviews last week at
Kinetica Art Fair in London.
2012 is the 100th anniversary of the birth of Alan Turing, one of the
greatest minds Britain has produced. Between inventing the digital
computer and helping to decode the German Enigma machine, to founding
the science of artificial intelligence, the world today would have
been a very different place without his ideas.
This exhibition, which takes its name from Turing's own writing,
brings together a number of important artists, from digital art
pioneers to emerging contemporary artists. The participating artists
are:
- boredomresearch (new commission)
- Roman Verostko,
- Patrick Tresset
- William Latham
- Greg Garvey
- Ernest Edmonds
- Anna Dumitriu and Alex May
- Paul Brown
ARTIST TALK
21 February, 7pm
http://www.lighthouse.org.uk/programme/intuition-and-ingenuity-artists-talk
Complementing the exhibition are talks led by artists,
boredomresearch and Alex May, and co-curator of the exhibition Anna
Dumitriu on 21 February.
Intuition and Ingenuity is touring the UK during Alan Turing Year,
showing at Lighthouse during Brighton Science Festival, plus many
other venues around the country. It is curated by Sue Gollifer, Nick
Lambert and Anna Dumitriu.
We hope to see you at Lighthouse for the show.
best wishes,
Honor
