Dear Dani
For fine art 'youtube' - like websites please check
http://www.re-title.com/
http://www.axisweb.org/
http://www.art.net/
although not all of these are free, artists do pay a small yearly
subscription to use these pages
also, if you are researching representation in the cyberspace, perhaps you
might find entertaining to check http://www.nottinghamstudios.org.uk/ this
is a website for the large community of studio-based artists in the city of
Nottingham, which is free and open to artists to use it as they like, so you
will see various examples of how much (or how little!) people have used
it...
let me know if you have any questions about this particular website, as I
live in Nottingham and am familiar with some of these people...

Well, the fact is that many people out of UK not to know the British
scene and only perceive a great initiative in this site. I am interested
in analyse a wide range of representation ways in cyberspace. And the
field of the arts is a special one. So, it would be great if others in
this list could contribute with some links on this topic :-)
Cheers,
Dani
