Abstract

The Leonardo Gallery section Lines of Flight presents works selected from an exhibition held as part of the Leonardo Education Forum at the 2007 College Art Association annual conference, which took place at Hunter College in New York on 16 February 2007. The exhibition, curated by Celina Jeffery and Gregory Minissale, was to provide a vantage point for an audience to engage with a range of networked installation art projects that involve taking flight from familiar cultural practices and locations. Intrinsic to the production and reception of these networked projects is the continual flight of culture and identity. These projects are also a place and non-place where hybridities may be enunciated, far from the territorial gravity of the earth and fixed borders.
