Small World
by andrea kirsh on 17. May, 2010 in NEWS, theartblog
Discussion of globalization in the art world most often addresses the situation of artists, the art market, and large international exhibitions, many of them held periodically such as Documenta or biennial exhibitions in Sao Paolo, Istanbul, Sharjah and elsewhere. There has been less general discussion about what globalization means for other art institutions, so I [...]

New Media, Art-Science, and Mainstream Contemporary Art: Toward a Hybrid Discourse?
by Rhizome.org Announcements on 23. Apr, 2010 in NEWS, Rhizome.org
2011 Call for Participation:
New Media, Art-Science, and Mainstream Contemporary Art: Toward a Hybrid Discourse?
Chair: Edward A. Shanken,
Leonardo Education and Art Forum (LEAF) Special Session
CAA 99th Annual Conference
New York, NY, February 9–12, 2011
PROPOSALS FOR PAPERS TO SESSION CHAIR, Due May 3, 2010
(Note: open only to members of the Leonardo Education and Art Forum (LEAF) or College Art Association)
Since the mid-1990s, new media has become an important force for economic and cultural development, establishing its own institutions, such as the ZKM, Ars Electronic Center, and Eyebeam. Research at the intersections of art, science, and technology also has gained esteem and institutional support, as demonstrated by the Artists in Labs program (Switzerland) and the proliferation of interdisciplinary Ph.D. programs around the world. During the same period, mainstream contemporary art experienced dramatic growth in its market and popularity, propelled by economic prosperity and the proliferation of international museums, art fairs and exhibitions from the Tate Modern to Art Basel Miami to the Shanghai Biennial. This dynamic environment has nurtured tremendous creativity and invention by artists, curators, theorists and pedagogues in all branches. Yet rarely does the mainstream artworld converge with the new media and art-sci artworlds. As a result, their discourses have become increasingly divergent.
Contemporary art practice and writing are remarkably rich but often lack understanding of science or technology and the interdisciplinary artistic practices and critical discourses that are co-extensive with them. Art-science and new media art offer valuable insights into the implications of science and technology and expand the possibilities of art. However, these discourses often display an impoverished understanding of aesthetic and theoretical developments in contemporary art, resulting in work that fails to resonate in that context.
This LEAF-sponsored session at CAA shall interrogate the extent to which the discourses of art-science, new media art and mainstream contemporary art are commensurable. Is it possible to construct a hybrid discourse that offers nuanced insights into each, while laying a foundation for greater mixing between them? What role have educational programs played in fostering these divides and how can they contribute to dissolving them? What insights into larger questions of emerging art and cultural forms might be gleaned by such a rapprochement?
Every proposal should include the following six items:
1. Completed session participation proposal form, located at the end of linked .pdf.
2. Preliminary abstract of one to two double-spaced, typed pages.
3. Letter explaining speaker’s interest, expertise in the topic, and CAA/LEAF membership status.
4. CV with home and office mailing addresses, email address, and phone and fax numbers. Include summer address and telephone number, if applicable.
5. Documentation of work when appropriate, especially for sessions in which artists might discuss their own work.
6. If mailing internationally, it is recommended that proposals be sent via certified mail or via email.
