The Artists Roundtable, an international forum for leading practitioners, is hosted by David A. Ross, faculty member of the MA Curatorial programs at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.
Deeply rooted in conceptualism, the work of Tony Oursler conjures multimedia and immersive experiences that combine traditional art-making tools with new technologies. He is known for his work with moving images, installation, and projection, drawing inspiration from telecommunications, narrative evolution, conspiracy, social media, facial recognition, mysticism, and environmental concerns. His works often take the form of a “palimpsest,” layering possible futures with the recent past, while focusing on present day issues. In recent years, Oursler has used his extensive archive in conjunction with installations to blur the boundaries between art, fact, and belief systems.
