This catalogue accompanies Michael Joo's first survey exhibition at the MIT List Visual Arts Center, Cambridge from October 2003 to January 2004, and at the Palm Beach Institute of Contemporary Art, Lake Worth from March to May 2004. Consisting of more than 35 works created between 1992 and 2003, the show includes sculpture, video, and works-on-paper, and will also be the world premiere of Circannual Rhythm (pibloktok), a three-screen digital video installation, shot on location in Alaska. Joo's art explores how science, religion, and the media shape consciousness and knit together the physical and the metaphysical. It is about energy and waste, the visible, and what cannot be seen. With essays by Daniel Birnbaum, Charles Gaines and texts by Michael Joo describing individual works. Artist biography and bibliography included.
