Evan Roth
Evan Roth is an American artist based in Paris whose practice visualizes and archives culture
through unintended uses of technologies. Creating prints, sculptures, videos, and websites,
his work explores the relationship between misuse and empowerment and the effect that
philosophies from hacker communities can have when applied to digital and non-digital
systems. His work is in the public collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and
the Israel Museum, and has been exhibited at the CentrePompidou, the Kunsthalle Wien and
the Tate.
He co-founded the arts organizations Graffiti Research Lab and the Free Art &
Technology Lab (F.A.T.). Awards in recognition of his work include the Golden Nica from Prix
Ars Electronica, Rhizome/The New Museum commissions and the Smithsonian’s Cooper-
Hewitt National Design Award.http://www.evan–roth.com/
