Lost in the Memory Palace

@ Art Gallery of Ontario Until August 18, 2013

 

"Opera for a Small Room," 2005

Canadian artists Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller are known internationally for their pioneering spirit and groundbreaking approach to making art. This exhibition focuses on their collaboration from the mid-1990s to today. Immerse yourself in their artworks: each room opens up to imaginary realms where narratives blend and merge, transporting you into the artists' meticulously detailed worlds of sound, light and imagery. Spanning a period from key early pieces such as Dark Pool (1995) and The Muriel Lake Incident (1999) to recent works including Killing Machine (2007) and Storm Room (2009), Lost in the Memory Palace consists of a series of seven discrete immersive environments. LINK ago
