bootleg gallery - Art Blocks Weekend 2025
The Generative Art Museum returns to Marfa for another edition of Art Blocks Weekend. For this edition, TGAM presents The Bootleg Gallery: a pickup that has crossed the desert carrying artists from far and wide. Its trunk transforms into the tiniest exhibition space, unfolding on the streets of Marfa.
The gallery will feature works by Anna Carreras, Heeey, Paolo Curtoni, and a selection of pieces from the Responsive Dreams Festival, and will officially open on Friday the 17th at 19:30, next to the Brite Building, 109 Highland St.
The bootleg gallery will include a live coding performance from Roxanne Harris, "alsoknownasrox”, a new media artist-researcher and musician-programmer based in Los Angeles. Represented in Europe by The Generative Art Museum, Roxanne embraces programming as an artistic medium, parameterizing on-the-fly, pushing the boundaries of improvisational dexterity within computational limitations. Her work invites audiences to engage the creative process as it unfolds, embracing vulnerability and exploring speculative futures through algorithmic transparency.
Unhinged
Processing, Javascript.
Anna Carreras (unreleased)
A wildly artwork, ever-evolving, blending landscapes and cultural references of Marfa and Barcelona into an unwieldy collage.
And When Rome Falls
p5.js and JavaCcript.
Heeey (unreleased)
A time capsule of life, the world, love, hate and despair through moments of darkness and color.
Solid Arguments?
JavaScript.
Paolo Curtoni (unreleased)
An investigation into the boundaries between perception and illusion, truth and deception, where form and language interlace on the grid of an elementary algorithm.
Sendas
p5.js.
Daniel Aguilar (unreleased)
Sendas explores the idea that every decision in art (and life) opens some doors and closes others. Rather than simply choosing a “right” path, it asks whether we’re truly in control, or whether the path unfolds through a mix of intention, chance, and discovery. The artist designed Sendas not to guide the viewer to one fixed outcome, but to enable play, exploration and personal discovery.
