Digital Capture: Southern California and the Pixel-Based Image World is an ambitious exhibition spanning six decades that investigates the history and creative uses of digital imaging technology, from the genesis of digital imaging in Southern California research laboratories during the Cold War and Space Race of the 1960s, to the ubiquity of digital media in our contemporary world. Featuring over 40 artists working across several technological, computing, and imaging media, including David Maisel, and conceptually organized into themes exploring issues of agency, representation, culpability, and connection, the exhibition narrates the ideological shifts that occurred as digital technologies were adopted for artistic ends.
Digital Capture is among more than 60 exhibitions and programs presented as part of PST ART. Returning in September 2024 with its latest edition, PST ART: Art & Science Collide, this landmark regional event explores the intersections of art and science, both past and present. PST ART is presented by Getty.
