How has digital technology changed our perception of reality?
This question has fueled the work of Madrid artist, writer,
and curator Daniel Canogar for the last two decades. In the
late nineties, he developed a multi-projection system using
fiber optic cables. Eliminating the photographic frame, these
immersive photo-installations cast the viewer as a moving
screen that covers and uncovers images. These work also call
on our age-old fascination with magic and illusionism, while
updating the notion of the technological phantom. Ultimately,
Canogar submerges us into the image to investigate how
identity is altered by the space of the spectacle.
Daniel Canogars work has been widely exhibited throughout
Europe and the Americas where it is found in many important
collections. He has also written extensively on the
architecture of the image, contemporary photography, and new
media art. Canogar is currently artistic director of VIDA, an
annual international competition sponsored by the Fundación
Telefónica, showcasing work that investigates the intersection
of art and artificial intelligence.
