Lia Carreira | Experimental curating: strategies and platforms for online-based art

Since its popularization in the 1990s, artists and art institutions have been struggling with how to present online-based art in both physical and online spaces. Today, in our highly digitally connected world, this concern also includes thinking about online engagement and finding new ways to identify emergent artists and current practices. During this talk, researcher Lia Carreira presents an overview of past and present initiatives which address these issues in curating and exhibiting online-based art, while sustaining the importance of the concept of »interface« for both curators and artists and suggesting the need for more experimental and collaborative approaches in the field.
