by Esfand Khoram

Evan Roth is an artist and researcher based in Paris who explores the intersection of free culture and popular culture, he is co-founder of the Graffiti Research Lab and the Free Art & Technology Lab, a web based, open source research and development lab. (Visiting the projects’ websites is recommended, I enjoyed them very much).

He has been living and making new work in Detroit for the last month, preparing the new series of his artworks called “Propulsion Paintings”  for a solo exhibition that opens this Wednesday at Eastern Michigan University: Welcome to Detroit Curated by Gregory Tom. (See videos below)
