Digital art challenges archiving, collecting and preserving methods
within and outside of gallery, library, archive and museum (GLAM)
institutions. By its media, art in the digital sphere is processual,
contextual, modular and ephemeral, and its creative process is
collaborative. From artists, scholars, technicians and conservators – to
preserve this contemporary art is a transdisciplinary task.

This book brings together leading international experts from digital
art theory and preservation, digital humanities, collection management,
conservation and media art histories. In a transdisciplinary approach,
theoretic and practice-based research from these stakeholders in art,
research, education and exhibition are presented to create an overview
of present preservation methods and discuss demands and opportunities
for the future. Finally, the need for a new appropriate museum and
archive infrastructure is shown to preserve the art of our time.
