Alan Butler
Alan Butler‘s work explores material and philosophical ideas about the functions of imagery and meaning in technologically mediated realities. Works are realized through arrangements of visuals, fetishistic, historical, intellectual property, and their communicative modes that make up their whole. The subject often ties together the cultural dogma that underpins visual languages, with algorithmic modes of being in western capitalist societies. He received his MFA from LaSalle College of the Arts, Singapore (2009) and BA in Fine Art from the National College of Art and Design, Dublin (2004). Alan Butler’s work is in the collections of IMMA – the Irish Museum of Modern Art, The Office of Public Works, Ireland, and Trinity College Dublin. He is represented by Green On Red Gallery, Ireland.
