Collecting and Conserving Net Art - Moving beyond Conventional Methods (Hardcover): Annet Dekker Collecting and Conserving Net Art - Moving beyond Conventional Methods (Hardcover)
Annet Dekker
R4,468 Discovery Miles 44 680 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Collecting and Conserving Net Art explores the qualities and characteristics of net art and its influence on conservation practices. By addressing and answering some of the challenges facing net art and providing an exploration of its intersection with conservation, the book casts a new light on net art, conservation, curating and museum studies. Viewing net art as a process rather than as a fixed object, the book considers how this is influenced by and executed through other systems and users. Arguing that these processes and networks are imbued with ambiguity, the book suggests that this is strategically used to create suspense, obfuscate existing systems and disrupt power structures. The rapid obsolescence of hard and software, the existence of many net artworks within restricted platforms and the fact that artworks often act as assemblages that change or mutate, make net art a challenging case for conservation. Taking the performative and interpretive roles conservators play into account, the book demonstrates how practitioners can make more informed decisions when responding to, critically analysing or working with net art, particularly software-based processes. Collecting and Conserving Net Art is intended for researchers, academics and postgraduate students, especially those engaged in the study of museum studies, conservation and heritage studies, curatorial studies, digital art and art history. The book should also be interesting to professionals who are involved in the conservation and curation of digital arts, performance, media and software.

Documentation as Art - Expanded Digital Practices (Hardcover): Annet Dekker, Gabriella Giannachi Documentation as Art - Expanded Digital Practices (Hardcover)
Annet Dekker, Gabriella Giannachi
R4,027 Discovery Miles 40 270 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book Presents documentation as an expanded practice that is radically changing the ways in which to look at, participate in, and generate art. Brings together expertise from different disciplines and provides an in-depth investigation of the development of documentation as a set of production, circulation and preservation strategies. Illustrates how these strategies are often led by artists, audiences and museums, the contributions offer new insights into digital art and its history, curation and preservation, through documentation. By considering documentation as the main method of preserving these art forms, analyses how it can address the inherent challenges of capturing live events, visitor experiences, and evolving artworks. Will appeal to researchers and students engaged in the study of museums and curation, art and art history, performance, new media and digital art, library and information science, and conservation.
