FIRST AMONG EQUALS // EXTRA EXTRA

EXTRA EXTRA (founded 2010, Philadelphia: Derek Frech, Joe Lacina, Daniel Wallace) is an artist-run gallery space that often focuses on digital and web-based artwork. For First Among Equals, Extra Extra collaborated with artist John Transue and virtual architect Laura Nejman to create an interactive virtual museum. Though the online version available here can be controlled with a mouse, in the exhibition a motion sensing device allows visitors to use their bodies to navigate digital galleries that have been installed with Transue's artwork curated by Extra Extra. Paintings, sculptures, and installations are filled with sly references to corporate logos as well as portals that open onto surreal environments beyond the virtual gallery walls.
