● 02/08/2021
“From AI bots to water purification systems, much of Hershman Leeson’s oeuvre has simultaneously paid homage to the radical creative power of the female body and alluded to the thorny widespread feminization of ‘service’ bots. ”
– Arts writer Cassie Packard, on Lynn Hershman Leeson’s “criminally belated” retrospective at the New Museum in New York. “A foremother to young new media artists working today, Hershman Leeson has blazed a trail for more than five decades, engaging with cutting-edge technologies ranging from interactive video to AI to genetic modification.”
