YOO (YearZEROZERO)

Peter d’Agostino © 1999/2025
Video Installation Preview: 6 min loop    Edition: 5+2 AP

YOO surveys Y2K Millennium bug fears
that by misrepresenting the year 2000 as 1900
computer systems would create tragic consequences
throughout the world. Moving back and forth in time,
YOO takes a critical look at technology, art and religion
by focusing on four cities during two millennia.

New York, 20th Century metropolis, 2000-1900
Philadelphia, Athens of America, 1800-1900
Roma, eternal city of the Jubilee, 1300-00
Brasilia, utopian/dystopian city, 1960-2000

Exhibitions: 1999-2000

Gallery of Art, Temple University, Rome
Painted Bride Art Center, Philadelphia
