Turkish-American Hour Episode 121

Sandro Kereselidze on Infinite Space: Founder and Art Director of ARTECHOUSE Sandro Kereselidze says that 21st century is known for technology, and what we leave behind for the next generations is data. “As artists we need to think of how we can make a positive thing out of it for public to be able to connect,” he says in an interview with our program host Courtney Clarke. In 2017, Washington, D.C. was the first place to exhibit and produce this new type of innovative artwork. The next exhibit was in Miami, and then in New York City. TATV Host Courtney Clarke interviewed Sandro during the Infinite Space Exhibition by Refik Anadol in August 2019.

ARTECHOUSE is dedicated to showcasing experiential and technology driven works by artists who are forerunners of the new age in the arts and technology.
