Perpetual Art Machine presents
The Future Was Then [PART2]
Regurgitating Histories

Please join us in the SCOPE BASEL VIP Lounge to celebrate Perpetual Art
Machine's first show in the elite fine art landscape of Basel
Switzerland and to commemorate the video art legend Nam June Paik. Paik
was credited over thirty years ago with coining the phrase “The future
is now”.  [PAM] asks what that means today in our rapidly changing
world by re-presenting an ambitious program of five specially curated
video projects originally organized for Scope New York 2008 by Jarrett
Gregory, Robert Adanto, Yiannis Colakides and Helene Black, Andrew
Erdos in addition to the newest incarnation of the [PAM] installation
and a specially curated section by [PAM] founders Chris Borkowsky,
Raphaele Shirley and Lee Wells.

Special thanks to Scope Art Fairs, NeME.org, and IFAC.

SCOPE Basel - June 3-8 2008
