Anouk Kruithof at Bitforms

Dutch artist Anouk Kruithof’s vaguely anthropomorphized stand features a printed sheet of vinyl bearing a picture (a screenshot) of a deliberately blurred ID card posted by the TSA to its Instagram account alongside contraband found on the traveller.   It’s a strange and provocative rematerialization of web-disseminated images. (At Bitforms on the Lower East Side through July 31st).

Anouk Kruithof, Neutral (openhearted), graphite, printed vinyl, rubber band, 70.1 x 48.5 x 11.81 inches, 2015.
