GIBBES MUSEUM OF ART

OPENED ON DECEMBER 13, 2024 – APRIL 27, 2025

The Beeple exhibition at the Gibbes Museum of Art in Charleston, South Carolina, will run from December 13, 2024, to April 27, 2025. This exhibition showcases four of Beeple’s latest kinetic sculptures, offering a unique blend of technology, art, and nature. Each piece challenges traditional art forms and invites visitors to engage with the digital world in new ways.

The Tree of Knowledge (2024) is an interactive sculpture that displays live news feeds, stock tickers, and cryptocurrency prices across rotating screens. Visitors can manipulate the flow of information, creating a dynamic experience that reflects on the overwhelming nature of modern media.

S.2122 (2023) combines digital video and sculpture to explore climate change and humanity’s future. The piece features an industrial building overtaken by nature, symbolizing the impact of environmental change and how nature may reclaim what humans have built.

Exponential Growth (2023) is a towering column of ever-changing digital flowers, commissioned by the Deji Art Museum in Nanjing, China. The work explores the themes of growth, decay, and nature’s fleeting beauty, with the flowers constantly evolving in color and form.

B.2124 (2024) envisions an underwater city 100 years from now, blending generative video and sculpture to explore technology’s coexistence with nature. Shifting visuals of robotic fish, glowing coral, and algae-powered turbines create a dynamic, ever-changing scene, offering a hopeful vision of a sustainable future.
