Original BioShock® Video Game Included in Smithsonian American Art Museum’s Upcoming “The Art of Video Games” Exhibit
NEW YORK, May 20, 2011: 2K Games today announced that the winner of the 2007 Game Critics Game of the Year award, BioShock®, has been selected for inclusion in the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s “The Art of Video Games” exhibit that will be on display in Washington, D.C., March 16, 2012 through September 30, 2012. Along with other games selected for this honor, BioShock will represent the action genre on the current generation of gaming platforms.
“The thought of seeing BioShock on display next to Georgia O’Keeffe and Thomas Hart Benton is, well, humbling,” said Ken Levine, president and creative director of Irrational Games. “The fact that gamers put us there makes it all the better.”
