Art from Sherman Finch’s solo exhibit.
“The exhibition presents a nexus between art and science that recalls such sources as Galileo’s astronomical instruments, Leonardo da Vinci’s diagrams on perpetual motion, John Cage’s artistic philosophy of chance, and Jean Tinguely’s concept of meta-mechanics,” Finch said.
Finch, who has a bachelor’s degree in art from the Rhode Island School of Design and two master’s degrees from the Maryland Institute, is a hybrid artist who works in traditional, digital and multi-media forms, with a special emphasis in the area of creative interaction, kinetic assemblage, sonification and conceptual art.
His work has been exhibited, performed and screened at venues such as the Roswell Museum and Art Center, the Amarillo Museum of Art, the Artscape in Baltimore, Site:Brooklyn Gallery, Governor’s Island Art Fair, Alexandria Museum of Art, Art Interactive Gallery Boston, Sarai Media Lab in New Delhi, New Museum of Art Detroit and York Art Gallery UK, among other places.
He is included in the publication Future Now: 100 Contemporary Artists, produced by Aesthetica, a British art and culture magazine. Recently, Finch’s work was featured on a billboard in Los Angeles as part of the 2016 Billboard Creative Public Art Project and was an official selection of the 2017 London Experimental Film Festival. He is a founding member of the collaborative group, The AKA Collective.
