Event Description

Carter members and their guests have the first chance to visit Dario Robleto: The Signal. Blending art and science, this exhibition highlights Robleto’s multiyear exploration of the Golden Record. The centerpiece of the exhibition is Robleto’s newly commissioned work Ancient Beacons Long for Notice, an immersive film that is the third and final installment in a trilogy of video and sound installations that comprise Robleto’s years-long investigation of the scientific, philosophical, and moral tensions of attempts to represent the totality of human life even when humans cease to exist.

Free for members. No registration required. Bring your membership card to the Information Desk for admittance.
