Be there online > STREAMING TALK > Curating, Collecting and
Archiving MediaArt<
During the last decades media art has grown to be the art of our
time, though it has hardly arrived in our cultural institutions.
The mainstream of art history has neglected developing adequate
research tools for these contemporary art works, they are exhibited
infrequently in museums, and there are few collectors. Media art is
hardly being archived and systematically preserved like ancient and
traditional forms of art. This loss of data our society is facing
because of the change in storage media and operational systems
threatens to result in a total loss of our contemporary digital
art. Which practices and strategies in curating and documenting of
media art do experts in the field suggest?
With
- Christiane PAUL, curator for New Media, Whitney Museum for
American Art, NY
- Paul SERMON, media artist and scientist at the University of
Salford, UK
