BIO
Joy Garnett is a painter based in New York. She appropriates news images from the Internet and re-invents them as paintings. Her subject is the apocalyptic-sublime landscape, as well as the digital image itself as cultural artifact in an increasingly technologized world. Her image research has resulted in online documentation projects, most notably The Bomb Project.
Notable past exhibitions include her recent solo shows at Winkleman Gallery, New York and at the National Academy of Sciences, Washington, DC; group exhibitions organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art, P.S.1/MoMA Contemporary Art Center, Artists Space, White Columns (New York), Kettle's Yard, Cambridge (UK), and De Witte Zaal, Ghent (Belgium). She shows with aeroplastics contemporary, Brussels, Belgium.

Re: 'piracy' update
oMG! that is amazing -- I have to tell my lawyer about what's going on
(tomorrow afternoon). I'm actually feeling a bit down about it all today,
and my perspective is skewed. I LOVE that you would be willing to commit
to such an action and it makes me feel like if I really have to embark on
a joywar (smirk) you guys are behind me (chomping at the bit as it were).
so my sense is that joywar has not yet been declared, but rallying the
troops is in order...

Re: 'piracy' update
the painting is as yet unsold. my gallery thinks they are completely out
of line. I don't htink they are afraid of the painting so much as afraid
of the reproductions, especially those on the web. the web is the
photojournalist's nightmare...

'piracy' update
wow-- now they're getting formal (and REALLY nasty) about it: they are
insisting I remove the jpeg of Molotov from my website -- and they
want thousands of dollars! AND they want my painting never to be
reproduced or exhibited again!
It seems the image on the website is a flashpoint; they're harrassing my
gallery about it too. As though anyone even looks much at our websites...
Maybe they will now.
anyone feel like grabbing the image and putting it on their site? not
that I'm actually suggesting it or anything (ahem). I may have to remove
it from mine at some point, even if only temporarily, to avoid 'problems.'

Lauri's great. I love: "...the resignification of personal, political or
historical memory, entering the terrain of the critical-nostalgic. [...]"
!
Great opportunity to consider the development from appropriation to
sampling and hacking; to contextualize a few things, from Martha Rosler
onward... Someone had to come up with a show like this sooner or
later--I hope we see more in the near future.
