ArtZone will host two programs associated with the exhibition: Architects Zoë Prillinger and Luke Ogrydziak will discuss on Tuesday, January 19 at 6:30 pm, the implications of algorithmic design and probability as an Art form. The discussion will be moderated by architect Theo Armour who worked as a program manager for many releases of the leading design software AutoCad.

The second panel discussion: Unraveling the Duchamp Enigma will feature artists Richard Berger, Naomie Kremer and Jan Wurm on Sunday, January 31 at 3:00 pm.  The artists will discuss how Marcel Duchamp’s interests, preoccupations, styles and media has influenced their art practices.
