View of Harbor Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston Jon Rafman, 2018 Developed by Studio Samuel Walker —
Exhibition running Feb 7 — May 20, 2018
Commissioned for "Art in the Age of the Internet", an exhibition curated by Eva Respini and Jeffrey de Blois, View of Harbor is a site-specific Virtual Reality installation which incorporates the ICA’s iconic architecture, and surrounding seaport, collapsing real and virtual space. The piece unfolds into a hallucinatory doomsday scenario, which includes a tidal wave, tormented bodies, and post-human landscapes. The site-specific virtual reality experience incorporates busts from the artist’s New Age Demanded sculpture series. (Source: https://www.langenfoundation.de/ausstellungen/aktuell/)
