Artist presentation on Christa Sommerer & Jeffrey Shaw

• Title of Exhibit:  "Virtual Realities"
  
• Artists:  Christa Sommerer & Jeffrey Shaw
• The theme of the presentation was to represent the types of work and media both Christa Sommerer and Jeffrey Shaw create and use.  Both artists create pieces that are viewer interactive, that is, the viewer participates in creating and/or manipulating the artwork.  Sommerer often incorporates touch screens into her pieces as well as other technology.  Shaw too works with technology to literally create virtual realities.  The two are unique in that they blend the use of science and technology with art.
