GAME UP 2022 — GREEN ON RED GALLERY

Exhibition Curator: Jerome O’Drisceoil

Abstract

Game Up was an exhibition curated by Green On Red Gallery Dublin in Transmediale Studio, Silent Green Kulturquartier Berlin.

GAME UP seeks to get under the skin of our increasingly digital planet as a springboard to new thinking and new action through the work of artists, Alan Butler, Elaine Hoey, Conor McGarrigle, Rosa Menkman, David O'Reilly and Paper Rad/Cory Arcangel. GAME UP is a reckoning, a rear mirror view and a look at the future of our hyper-connected world.

What are the rules of engagement in this electronic superhighway and who is policing them? What of our digital shadow and its instantaneous monetisation? How are race and gender played out in the digital space? By turning the technology on itself, the artists in GAME UP create ways to consider and expose this hidden world. The viewer is brought deep into virtuality by means of narratives and experiences that question and confront the digital contract.
