  Jon Ip­polito, the re­cip­i­ent of Tiffany, Lan­nan, and Amer­i­can Foun­da­tion awards, Jon Ip­polito ex­hib­ited art­work with col­lab­o­ra­tive team­mates Janet Cohen and Keith Frank at venues such as the Walker Art Cen­ter (USA) and ZKM/Cen­ter for Art and Media Karl­sruhe (Germany). As As­so­ci­ate Cu­ra­tor of Media Arts at the Guggen­heim Mu­seum, he cu­rated Vir­tual Re­al­ity: An Emerg­ing Medium and, with John G. Han­hardt, The Worlds of Nam June Paik.

At the Still Water lab co-founded with Jo­line Blais, Ip­polito has been at work on three pro­jects–the Vari­able Media Net­work, ThoughtMesh, and the book At the Edge of Art–that aim to ex­pand the art world be­yond its tra­di­tional con­fines.
