Vital Signs
August 20 - October 19, 2008

Curated by Gary Sangster, Executive Director of the Headlands Center for the Arts in Sausalito, California, Vital Signs is an examination of traditional drawing and works on paper within the context of new forms of digital production. As the show reveals, developments in systems of representation—at a conceptual, perceptual and technical level—impact the role and value of art in a dynamic way, constantly shifting recognition and understanding.

The role of technology is not limited to the basic systems of digital reproduction in photography, however, but responsible for an array of processes that affect the creation and reception of art. Emerging through science and research to become standard production techniques, these technologies have become increasingly accessible to artists.
