(SCENE) Metrospace to Unveil Latest Exhibit: “Robots/Labor/Future Worlds”
(SCENE) Metrospace will unveil its latest exhibit, “Robots/Labor/Future Worlds,” with a special public opening on Friday, Oct. 24 from 6-9 p.m.
The exhibit will remain open to the public Oct. 24-Dec. 7 and will feature the following artists: MSU professor Dan Marsh, local artists Juanita Baldwin and Javier Rivera, MSU students Sam Merciers and Andrew Rieder, Detroit-based George Rhame, New York artist Jeremy Couillard and Los Angeles-based David Rose.
The “Robots/Labor/Future Worlds” exhibit centers on three themes: Americans’ image of robots, their influence in the future and their effect on labor.
“Robots/Labor/Future Worlds showcases artworks that foster some reflection on how the three themes are interrelated in today's media driven, technological society,” said (SCENE) Metrospace Director Tim Lane.
