Jakob Boeskov "Weekend Futurology"
Mulherin + Pollard
This event has ended.
Mulherin + Pollard presents the exhibition Weekend Futurology by Danish-Icelandic artist Jakob Boeskov. Recent drawings and videos reveal a futuristic, playfully paranoid world drawn from Boeskov's oeuvre: technology, politics, and science fiction.
Playing both mischief-maker and professor, Boeskov shifts between campy sci-fi pastiche and critical examination. Using a futuristic iconography drawn from new technology and popular science fiction, he seeks to expose a new "technological sub-consciousness" where violence and mind-control dwell. Diagrams, drones, and robots in search of love populate drawings discussing topics ranging from big data to Internet dating.
