Breaking and Entering: Art and the Video Game
Cory Arcangel had an installation titled Breaking and Entering: Art and the Video Game. As I looked through the photographs of his different compositions I could not help but wonder what exactly it all meant. Maybe I just don't have the depth it takes to understand his works, but in all honestly they leave me baffled. The only thought that came to mind was perhaps a reflection upon how medias like video games have literally broken into our homes today and in some ways even keep families apart. That could be one possibility considering his other exhibition grouped with Breaking and Entering was The Young Art Fair. One can see how children get sucked into video games and become alienated from the family around them.
