In this age, anything’s possible. Last week, NYLON alerted us to T_XT_RT, a group exhibition at the Jenkins Johnson Gallery in New York, which focuses on dissecting the changing relationship between text — especially the short, abbreviated texts of our modern age — and art. The exhibition explores this idea through a wide variety of mediums, from neon lights to repurposed GameBoys to altered books. Maybe this is the perfect way to make those 160-character missives we all love so much actually mean something. Click through to see a few highlights from the exhibition and check it out at the Jenkins Johnson Gallery in NYC until June 25th.

Last summer there was an exhibit at the Museum of London where the artists compiled the tweets and facebook statuses of people who live in a three-mile radius from the museum over the course of a month. Each day, they pasted up new updates. It was great to see what people were up to or thinking and so many of them were hilarious. http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/38481_408490886129_508656129_4616310_1028323_n.jpg
