StereoVision looks simultaneously at the past, present and future as it examines how art and technology have shaped our vision and perception. Stereographs, a groundbreaking 19th century antecedent of virtual reality, are joined with contemporary photographs, sculptures, holograms, and video installations. The viewer is immersed in environments that probe and disturb our normative visual, auditory and kinetic perceptive experiences.

The artists represented in StereoVision include Peter Bahouth, Ian Burns, Janet Cardiff, Juan Cespedes, Chuck Close, Rochelle Costi, Leandro Erlich, Zilvinas Kempinas, William Kentridge, Brian Meola, Barbara Probst, James Tunick and Janis Garancs. The stereographs and stereoscopes are on loan from the Drapkin Collection and the contemporary works are borrowed from private collections, museums and galleries. StereoVision is curated by Izabel Galliera, USF Institute for Research in Art.
