Contemporary Art Explores Human Genomics
From
glowing bacteria to transgenic mice and "manimals,"
the Gene(sis) exhibit, on display at the UC
Berkeley Art Museum Aug. 27-Dec. 7, presents
artists' visions of a post-genomic future,
featuring nearly one hundred works by renowned
and emerging contemporary artists. In conjunction
with Gene(sis), the Pacific Film Archive will
present Genetic Screenings, a survey of some
of the more provocative moving-image works
that have engaged the genome as either focus
or foil. For groups of five or more, BAM/PFA
is offering special "Double-Helix Evenings,"
including a guided exhibit tour and film program.
Admission is $10 per person. Full
