Arts, Technology and Culture: Tom Sachs 'Sculpture. Simulacrum. Ritual'
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Described by Emma Allen for the New Yorker as a "mix of mad scientist, obsessive tinkerer, cult guru, taskmaster general, starry-eyed theoretician, and workout champion," Tom Sachs is one of today's most inspiring and influential sculptors. Best known for elaborate and transformative re-creations of various Modern icons, re-creations that are masterpieces of engineering and design, Sachs' work confronts capitalist culture through bricolage.
Berkeley's Art, Technology, and Culture Colloquium presents new ideas that challenge conventional wisdom about art, technology, and culture.
Co-sponsored by the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and the Art Practice Department.
