new books about curating new media
This spring CRUMB - www.crumbweb.org - the online resource for curators
of new media art - turns 10!
This coincides with the release of our new book 'Rethinking Curating:
Art After New Media', now available from MIT Press
http://mitpress.mit.edu/catalog/item/default.asp?ttype=2&tid=12071
To mark the occasion, The Green Box in Berlin has published two new
volumes of material from the CRUMB archives: 'A Brief History of
Curating New Media Art: Conversations with Curators' and 'A Brief
History of Working with New Media Art: Conversations with Artists'
http://www.thegreenbox.net/en/books/brief-history-curating-new-media-art
http://www.thegreenbox.net/en/books/brief-history-working-new-media-art
These two volumes track the work of curators and practitioners in the
field of new media art in order
to consider the massive changes and developments over a relatively short
period of time. The curators and artists featured in these books range
across the contemporary arts. They have been working away, not in the
centre or the periphery, but in the nodes of this networked field of
practice.
A Brief History of Curating New Media Art includes interviews with:
Sarah Cook & Beryl Graham; Peter Weibel; Barbara London; Christiane
Paul; Larry Rinder; Kathy Rae Huffman & Julie Lazar; Benjamin Weil;
Liliane Schneiter, Yves Mettler & Anne-Julie Raccoursier; Liane Davison;
Nathalie Anglès & Sebastien Sanz de Santamaria; Matthew Higgs; Magdalena
Sawon & Tamas Banovich; Steve Dietz; Rudolf Frieling.
A Brief History of Working With New Media Art includes interviews with,
or presentations by: Natalie Bookchin / Brendan Jackson; Jon Thomson &
Alison Craighead, Wendy Kirkup, Nina Pope and Vuc Cosic; Michelle
Kasprzak / Skawennati Tricia ; Simon Pope; Heath Bunting; Gregory
Sholette / Nato Thompson; Marc Garrett / Ruth Catlow; Régine Debatty;
Christiane Erharter; Nina Czegledy & Woon Tien Wien; Michael Mandiberg;
Amanda McDonald Crowley & Patrick Lichty; Miki Fukuda; Simon Faithfull.
We are holding a book launch for these volumes this Friday March 5th at
4:30pm at BALTIC, The Center for Contemporary Art, UK. Talks and launch
events will follow in April and May in New York, Ottawa, Montreal,
Toronto and Banff.
Please do get in touch for further information,
