Description - Portfolio by Michael Betancourt

This portfolio of works produced between 1990 and 2021 is the companion to the book Research Art by Michael Betancourt. It is a full color chronological documentation of movies, statics and social installations. This concise summary reveals a diverse practice addressing how media history, digital technology, and capitalist ideology inform studio practice. At once very specific, the work collected here reveals a consistent and coherent aesthetic realized by an artist who self-consciously placed himself on the margin of the art world as a way to achieve critical distance. Showing both representative stills and documentary information, this Portfolio reveals the constant concerns with critical praxis that unify Betancourt's various projects.
