Mark Amerika Back at the Denver Art Museum for Blink!

We saw Mark Amerika at the opening of the Blink! show at the Denver Art Museum. Amerika's CODEWORK from 2003 is exhibited in the main gallery on the first floor of the museum along with work from Nam June Paik, Bill Viola, Stacey Steers, Bjorn Melhus, and Christian Marclay.

The Colorado Daily has an article on the show where they reveal that there's a work by one of Amerika's former Grad students as well. In the article, Amerika says
CODEWORK is in the tradition of experimental filmmakers interested in how the medium relates to flicker, hypnotism and trance.
