monochrom präsentiert: scott blake and the barcode

"scott blake takes barcodes and turns them into art - art that is simultaneously pop and op, intellectual and personal, minimal and ocular. he employs the black and white symbol of standardization and efficiency - to craft a subversive style of digital pointillism.
large-scale iconography of celebrities examines the relationship between the individual and the media commodity - the human being and his or her adaptation to pixilated, simplified cultural symbol."
