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.

*from the press release:*
San Francisco, a city known for activism and creativity, will host the
emotional and politically charged *Simnuke Art
Exhibit*<http://www.simnuke.org/gallery.html>on July 28th, 7pm to
midnight, at
*Rx Gallery* <http://www.rxgallery.com/>, 132 Eddy Street. Over the last
sixty years, people all over the world have struggled with the looming
threat of nuclear arms. For the artists exhibiting in the Simnuke Art
Exhibit, this struggle expresses itself through artwork that is both
stunning and a searing indictment of the nuclear arms race.

*The Simnuke Project* <http://www.simnuke.org/home.html> commemorates and=

confronts the splitting of the atom using art that ranges the emotional
gamut from fear to anger, satire, and above all, a simple wish for peace.

Fwd: Simnuke/Exhibit Media Coverage


FYI

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Sasha Harris-Cronin <sasha@mortalspaces.com>

It's another day of lots of Simnuke emails.

I wanted to update you all with the current state of media coverage
per the show and the Simnuke Project itself. The SF Weekly will be
doing an article dedicated to the show, The Guardian will be
featuring it, SFist will be doing a review (and perhaps an interview)
and Nichei Bei Times is interested in covering it as well. I've
included the thank you letter written by Camron Assadi, the
coordinator of the Simnuke Project. It's gotten international
coverage (anyone speak Norwegian?) as well as features in Wired News,
NPR, and Boing Boing. A lot of people came away much more moved and
motivated than they expected to be, which was what everyone was
hoping for.

Everything is looking good!

Thanks again.

sasha.

All,

The Simnuke Team would like to thank you for your support. We are
overjoyed
at how well and safely the event went off. We are recovering, happy
to know
that our message reached an audience. Sharing the 30 second
culmination of
three years of work with all of you has made it all worthwhile.

Thank you to all who attended and helped make this event amazing. A
very big
thanks to those of you that helped us load the truck on Sunday morning!

We very much appreciate the donations that we have received, we could
not do
it without them. That said, the team is still very much in the hole
for this
project, so if you attended and haven't made a donation, or were
thinking of
it, please do! You can paypal your tax-deductible donation to
donations@cloudfactoryarts.org or by clicking the donate button on
the pages
at http://simnuke.org

Mark you calendars: the Simnuke Gallery event opens July 28th at Rx

after the simulation, bringing in the sunrise and setting the mood
perfectly:

You can listen to a studio version of the cello music Zoe played at
Simnuke.

From Zoe, "It's still a work in progress, and is not fully mixed or
mastered
yet, but I'd like to share it anyway."
