SynopsisFifty-five young, international artists have "remastered" celebrated works from "Guernica" by Pablo Picaso and "Gabrielle d'Estree and Her Sister" by Ecole de Fontainbleau to "The Kiss" by Gustav Klimt. The transformations by Kenzo Minami, Vincent Skeltis, Mika Machida, Antoine et Manuel, etc., result in a collection of reinterpretations infused with expressive imagery and insightful wit in a wide variety of styles. While the artist interviews and texts by the curator provide depth into the history and context of the juxtaposed works, the artworks reveal cutting-edge techniques and applications defining contemporary visual culture.
