Career

edit

Greber began exhibiting video installations and sculptures as a member of New Orleans–based art collective The Front in 2009.[7][8] His work was featured in Prospect 1.5, part of the Prospect New Orleans triennial, curated by Dan Cameron.[9][10] In historic French Quarter site, Madame Johns Legacy, he constructed a 4-channel video installation relating tarot card divination and the international television show Deal or No Deal.[11][12] C24 Gallery's inaugural exhibition, "Double Crescent: Art from Istanbul and New Orleans,” featured an installation by Greber, curated by Prospect New Orleans founder Dan Cameron.[13] The show included both emerging artists and established artists from New Orleans and Istanbul, in 9,000-square-foot space at 514 West 24th Street, Chelsea, NYC.[14] Greber exhibited solo shows featuring video installations and objects with the Arthur Roger Gallery in New Orleans: Stilllives, Peekaboo, Still Brothy and 7000-Day Candles.[15][16]

A single-channel piece by Greber was featured in Lorna Mills' Ways of Something, a collection of one-minute videos by 113 web-based artists compiled and curated by Mills and released in March 2015. It is a contemporary remake of John Berger’s BBC documentary Ways of Seeing (1972). The resulting piece was collected and featured as part of the Whitney Museum's exhibition of video work, Dreamlands: Immersive Cinema and Art, 1905–2016.[17]

State of the Art, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art’s national survey of artists, featured Greber's large-scale video installations. The exhibit toured extensively around the southern United States following its inaugural exhibit in Bentonville, AK.[18][19] His solo exhibition The Casebearer was presented at The Ogden Museum of Southern Art.[20][21] Greber's art Stilllives II: Vignette was featured in an exhibition at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.[22]

Greber was commissioned by the MTA Arts & Design to create Skyyys, a 52-channel video installation which played throughout the Fulton Center Transportation Hub, in New York City from July 2018 to March 2019.[23][24][25] It won the Silver Apex award at the Digital Signage Expo in 2019, which recognizes achievement in the installation of digital displays and interactive technology.[26][27]
