In reference to PW, Beth Comstock, former vice chair of General Electric said, “I watch incubators in Silicon Valley and all around the world. Pioneer Works is leading the way. It’s a great community to keep plugged into. This “incubator where painters rub elbows with physicists” often collaborates with the likes of Google, and “features influential, Nobel Prize–winning scientists discussing some of science’s great answered questions” next to art exhibitions, such as PÒTOPRENS, a survey of Haitian art which displayed “numerous monumental figurative sculptures in Pioneer Work’s yawning main space — a vibrant carnivalesque antidote to the classical sculpture courts of western museums”.

Dustin Yellin (born July 22, 1975 in Los Angeles, California) is a contemporary artist living in Brooklyn, New York. He is known for his work in which the artist embeds “hundreds of little pictures, drawings and images clipped out of magazines, art books and the like” to form complex and intricate tableaux in miniature, which the critic, Gilda Williams, writing in Artforum, noted provides viewers “the ability to occupy a divine vantage point while enjoying an overwhelming sense of discovery and wonder”. These works, which the artist refers to as “Frozen Cinema”, have been featured at such notable sites as New York’s Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C as well as at the Brooklyn Museum, where Yellin’s work is part of the permanent collection. Yellin has likewise participated in The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Artist Project. According to Andrew Durbin, “Yellin has formalized the central task of art—to archive: feelings, objects, events, selves—in his large glass blocks, recalling in their extreme hermeneutical diversity (forms within forms within forms, images within images within images) both as a past in which the representation of the human form was art’s most recognizable enterprise and a future in which that enterprise is deeply complicated by the fact that the human form has been shredded, reformatted, revised, and redesigned, made precarious and permeable by technological and ecological shifts.”
