How do images bait or beguile us as they circulate online? How do they compel, capture, or control us? The fourteen artists presented in this exhibition engage with visual phenomena that serve as vehicles for online communication, criticism, and humor. They highlight the crucial role images play in shaping our social, cultural, and political landscapes.
Join the present artists, as well as curators Boaz Levin and Marco De Mutiis, for an engaging guided tour of the exhibition and gain fascinating first-hand insights into their works.
Zoé Aubry develops a critical, resolutely militant, feminist and experimental research practice through photography within installations that unfold in space. Her approach explores issues of the economy of attention, and resistance to systems of power and oppression, both media-related and digital. Her work has been exhibited internationally in group and solo exhibitions as well as at several festivals. In parallel, she is active within collective and associative initiatives where cultural work and political commitment meet to militate.
Sara Bezovšek is a new media artist working in the fields of internet art, experimental film and graphic design. Her artistic practice is characterized by reappropriation of online and pop cultural materials. Using a dense visual language of references, she taps into the collective imaginarium and constructs engaging narratives that are both a critique and a celebration of the highly saturated online media landscapes we navigate daily.
Michael Mandiberg is an interdisciplinary artist who created Print Wikipedia, edited The Social Media Reader (NYU Press), and co-founded Art+Feminism. Their work has been exhibited at Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art, and Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, amongst others. Mandiberg is Professor of Media Culture at the College of Staten Island, CUNY and Doctoral Faculty at The Graduate Center, CUNY.
Jenny Rova lives and works between Sweden and Switzerland. Her work explores intimacy, identity, desire, and the politics of the personal through autobiographical and relational photographic strategies. She is best known for her works ÄLSKLING – A self-portrait through the eyes of my lovers and I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO BE - A work on jealousy, which examine authorship, the gaze, and self-representation. Her more recent project CALLING PHILIPPE / PROVE YOUR LOVE addresses intimacy and bureaucracy within the context of migration. Rova’s work has been widely exhibited and published internationally.
Ellie Wyatt is an artist, writer and educator. Her practice explores ‘truth’ as a construct, and the ways in which it is communicated through visual languages. Her recent research interests include representations of gender in astronomy and space exploration, conspiracy theories, photography and online cultures, microscopes, and time capsules. Starting from a research-led approach, Ellie’s work manifests across publications, prints, texts, installations, drawings, films and participatory projects. Recent presentations and talks include A Box That Rolls Uphill, The Koppel Project, London (2025); The Lure of the Image, Fotomuseum Winterthur (2025); Screenwalks, The Photographers Gallery, online (2024). She lives and works in London.
Marco De Mutiis is Professor for Evolving Imaging and Photography at HTWG Konstanz and Digital Curator at Fotomuseum Winterthur in Switzerland. His research focuses on the digital transformations of photography including algorithmic and networked forms of image-making. His professional interests also encompass the role and space of the museum, expanded through online platforms and alternative modes of knowledge exchange. These include the collaborative live stream program Screen Walks (developed and co-curated with Jon Uriarte, Curator of Digital Programs at The Photographers’ Gallery in London), as well as Fotomuseum’s experimental platform [permanent beta] The Lure of the Image.
