Curating Digital Art: From Presenting and Collecting Digital Art to Networked Co-Curation

What is the role of the curator when organizing digital art exhibitions in online and offline spaces? Curating Digital Art focuses on how the experiments of curators, artists, and designers have reconfigured traditional models and methods for presenting and accessing (digital) art. In addition, it addresses how web-based practices continue to challenge certain established museological values and precipitate alternative ways of understanding art's stewardship, curatorial responsibility, public access, and art history. Through more than twenty interviews with artists and curators conducted over the course of the last ten years-combined with an extensive timeline-the readers are given an insight into the discourse on digital art and how it is curated today.
