Following Jon Rafman's Brand New Paint Job, The Wall's programme continues to explore the cut and paste world of digital imaging.
Over the next few weeks, Anthony Antonellis shows off his 'skillz' animating the tools and filters of Photoshop in his 2011 video. In part a reaction to the glossy perfection and hidden artistry of Photoshop-edited photographs, the piece also references communities of users who share their own Photoshop demo videos online.

Anthony Antonellis is a visual artist, educator and founder of netartnet.net. He is known primarily for his work online, but his practice is not limited to virtual space. His process copy-pastes between analog and digital states, exploring the simultaneity of real and virtual objects. His recent works have experimented in short animation, installations, painting, and internet based art. Antonellis studied at Savannah College of Art and Design, BFA in painting, and Bauhaus-University Weimar, MFA in new artistic strategies.
