Gartel's, Trance, Dance and Other Living Things on DVD
Amazon Review - Gartel- Trance, Dance and Other Living Things Vol. 1 DVD
This dvd is unique. The 14 tracks cover a whole range of dance styles from the Ragga influenced 'Notorius' (Miss Gorgeous) by General Degree to Trancy/Euro -Ibiza club anthems like Suva's 'Searching for the Sun'. All the music is of the highest quality and Gartel's mindblowing in sync visualisations cut with images from his fantastic artistic brain leave you stunned. The whole thing is like having a perfect club night experience on dvd

LAURENCE GARTEL is a founding "PIONEER" of the Digital Art movement. Gartel could also be considered the father of the paintbox era (circa 1986), who actually started this technique 10 years prior to any software being written for painting and photo-manipulation. He used digital synthesizers, TVs and then output photographically as a dyesub & Polaroid prints. It was also 10 years before Warhol did his Amiga prints of Deborah Harry.
His work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, Joan Whitney Payson Museum, Long Beach Museum of Art, Princeton Art Museum, PS 1, Norton Museum and in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institution's Museum of American History and the Bibliotheque Nationale. His biography for his pioneering efforts is included in "Who's Who," "Who's Who in the East," "Who's Who in America," "Who's Who in American Art," and "Who's Who in the World."
Born and raised in New York City, Mr. Gartel had the opportunity to teach Andy Warhol how to use the Amiga Computer, went to School of Visual Arts, with fellow art student, grafitti artist Keith Haring, where he earned his BFA degree majoring in Graphics, and started his electronic career working side by side with Nam June Paik at Media Study/Buffalo in upstate New York.
Gartel had many associations
with musicians such as Debbie Harry (Blonde) Sid Vicious (Sex
Pistols), Stiv Bators (Dead Boys) Johnny Thunders (New York Dolls)
Ace Frehley (Kiss) and Wendy O Williams (Plasmatics). Recently,
Gartel has created artwork for such Pop Culture stars such as
Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears.
LAURENCE
GARTEL breaks all the rules once
again as he brings to the music and entertainment industry a new
vision. Mixing photography, graffiti, 3D computer graphics, animation,
paint and video, here is GARTEL's first fusion of art and
music in the new genre of Digital Video (DVD). Each track is like
a mini movie. This project allows people to have their own rave
party.
Suggested to be shown on a big screen the experience reminds people of their early "club" days (with or without external stimulus): GARTEL takes us to heightened sensory states. GARTEL's work has been exhibited around the globe at institutions and museums such as: The Museum of Modern Art, Joan Whitney Payson Museum, Long Beach Museum of Art, Princeton Art Museum, Norton Museum, and in the collections of the Bibliotheque Nationale, and Smithsonian Institution's Museum of American History. Several monograph books on Mr. GARTEL's work include: "Laurence GARTEL: A Cybernetic Romance," published by Gibbs Smith, Utah, and "GARTEL: Arte & Tecnologia" published by Edizioni Mazotta, Italy. Commissions include: "ABSOLUT GARTEL" for Absolut Vodka, Coca Cola, Philip Morris, Roche Pharmaceuticals, FORBES, Walt Disney Company, Commerzbank, and many others.

Friend and colleague, STEVE DANZIG brings his bizarre sense of art and design to the
multi media platform. Editing and mixing both the moving image
and the static singular frames, the production takes on a multi
layered dimension. The viewer is taken on a journey and most certainly
will not be the same after experiencing this work. DANZIG residing
in Australia communicates with GARTEL via the internet while discussing
artistic strategies . DANZIG has been a working digital artist
for many years. He is the President of the IDAA which features
the talents of artists working in digital media. The exhibition
of the IDAA have been shown in the United States, Germany, Australia
and Russia.
