4. november 2010: Sarah Cook: Rethingking Curating: Art After New Media
Since 2000, the research centre CRUMB at the University of Sunderland in the UK, has aimed to help curators rethink their practices in the light of new media art's 'behaviours'. This talk will suggest how the immaterial, time-based and participatory qualities of media art challenge curatorial ways of working, drawing from Sarah Cook's book co-authored with Beryl Graham, Rethinking Curating: Art After New Media.
