Summary

GAMESCENES feature on Max Capacity’s SimCityScape / CitiScapes series — pixel art cityscapes referencing SimCity aesthetics. GAMESCENES (gamescenes.org) is an important game art platform founded by Matteo Bittanti, curating work at the intersection of video games and contemporary art. This is the second of two Max Capacity features on GAMESCENES, following the NES Hex Glitch series feature from May 2012.

The CitiScapes series likely connects to the Boing Boing “Pixel cities” feature from August 2010, suggesting the pixel cityscape practice spanned at least 2010–2013.
