Artist Shyu Ruey-Shiann is participating in the group exhibition “Useless: Machines for Dreaming, Thinking and Seeing” curated by Gerardo Mosquera at Bronx Museum in New York.

“Useless: Machines for Dreaming, Thinking and Seeing” questions and examines the value of the utility in a world what is increasingly automated. Artist Shyu is presenting Dreambox (2012), kinetic installation comprising components of a full size motorbike “Wolf 125”- a popular model many young people longed to have and ride it around Taiwan in the 1990s. Shyu created this piece as a tribute to those who dare to dream and venture into the unknown.

“Useless: Machines for Dreaming, Thinking and Seeing” is curated by Gerardo Mosquera, and generously supported by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, The Jacques and Natasha Gelman Foundation, and the Ministry of Culture (Taiwan) Taipei Cultural Center in New York. The show is now on view from March 27, 2019 through September 1, 2019.
