\"AustinClarksville, TN<\/strong> – Have you ever remembered something that you never actually experienced? Maybe it was the vivid terrain of a place you haven\u2019t visited, or the familiar smile of someone you don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

These strange recollections, arising from the millions of images we are exposed to on the Internet and television, fascinate the California-based artist McLean Fahnestock, and her new exhibit, \u201cRepublic of Champions,\u201d examines the public\u2019s collective memory, created by our constant exposure to images in the media.<\/p>\n

\"Republic<\/a>

Republic of Champions by McLean Fahnestock<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cI seek out footage, images and items that tap into the collective memory \u2013 recalling events that I never physically participated in but because of constant exposure through the media, I have absorbed as my own,\u201d Fahnestock said. \u201cI select imagery from journalism, news and sports, paying close attention to examples of competition in all arenas, from politics to family.\u201d<\/p>\n

The exhibit opened January 12th on the website TERMINALapsu.org, a space sponsored by Austin Peay State University\u2019s Department of Art and the Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts to showcase and examine Internet and new media art. It runs through January 27th.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe characters that populate pageantry and politics, from astronauts to ice-skaters, are just as real as they are fictionalized,\u201d she said. \u201cI actively search for the points where things open up and a gesture becomes a tell. It is that moment, the slight failure that taints a triumph and creates a blemish that with time and picking does not heal but becomes a fissure into which I shine my flashlight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fahnestock\u2019s work has been exhibited in New York, California, Tennessee, Indiana, Ireland, Japan and Canada. She is the recipient of grants from the Hoff Foundation, Arts Council for Long Beach and the Durfee Foundation.<\/p>\n

Her \u201cRepublic of Champions\u201d exhibit also begins a new phase for APSU\u2019s online gallery, with the introduction of the Terminal Physical Space.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have dedicated a portion of the Trahern lobby (on the APSU campus) to present video\/sound\/new media work by national and international artists,\u201d Barry Jones, APSU associate professor of art, said.<\/p>\n

Viewers can now either go online to check out Fahnestock\u2019s work, or they can gather around a computer screen in the Trahern building to see the exhibit. Future TERMINALapsu.org exhibits will also be available in this space throughout the spring semester.<\/p>\n
