Through June 26

PITTSBURGH, PA: Artist Eric Singer invites you to look ahead, play along and enjoy the ride. Singer’s collection of new work, Living in The Future, creates a retro-proto-spective by combining sound, video, robotics and technology. Despite the absence of flying cars, jet packs and personal worm holes, Eric Singer takes visitors on a forward-thinking, sensate journey.

The Pittsburgh Art BlogThe Pittsburgh Art Blog features selected pittsburgh artists and upcoming exhibits with photos from the artists and galleries. since the major press outlets do not go beyond a directory listing of exhibits, blogs are needed to promote pittsburgh artists and their work. the blog also calls attention to the inferiority complex of pittsburgh art and how it's perpetuated by the major players in town. Started on August 20,2007. pittsburgh area galleries and art venues are listed at the sister site www.PghGalleries.com.
the blog and website are volunteer projects from fine art photographer and pittsburgh artist advocate rick byerly.
