This exhibition explores the critical terrain of post-modern theory in contemporary art. In particular, the artists and curators examine the concepts of history and memory and their inter-relationships with each other, asking questions about the cultivation of both. The work in this exhibition includes paintings, photographs and videos. Some video artists include Bruce Barber, Judith Barry, Martha Rosler, Peter Adair, Nancy Buchanan, Downtown Community Television Center, and El Taller de Video "Timoteo Velasquez".
