Rosa Menkman (1983) is a Dutch artist, curator, and internationally renowned theorist specializing in glitch art and the art and theory of resolution. As a pioneer of glitch art and one of the movement’s most influential theorists, in her book Network Notebook #04: The Glitch Moment(um) (2011) she proposed an understanding of glitch art as a particular genre of contemporary art. She has exhibited widely internationally, and her works are held in the collections of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and the Art Institute of Chicago.

Drawing on Paul Klee’s iconic 1920 painting ‘Angelus Novus’ and Walter Benjamin’s philosophical interpretation of the work as the ‘Angel of History,’ Rosa Menkman’s exhibition explores what happens to images in today’s digital environment as they are continuously copied, processed, fragmented, and circulated across platforms and algorithms. Visit Image Remains until February 5.
