Play Cultures Exhibition opens
October 5, 2007 - by Ian Bogost

Today our pals at Grand Text Auto open their exhibit at the Beall Center in Irvine. At the same time, the The Museum of Contemporary Art Vojvodina in Novi Sad, Serbia, is opening the exhibition Play Cultures. The exhibit features work by WCG's own Gonzalo Frasca and Persuasive Games, as well as friends Molleindustria, Serious Games Interactive, and Tale of Tales, plus a number of other accomplished artists I haven't had the pleasure yet to meet. I wish I could have been there for the opening today. The exhibition runs until October 25.
