Collecting and Conserving Net Art Collecting and Conserving Net Art 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 hardware 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 analyzing 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.

The research for the book developed and evolved during the subsequent years while I worked at Virtueel Platform (2008–10) and SKOR (2010–12), who both partly ensured an outcome with their financial support. Finally, all the work culminated in my PhD at the Centre for Cultural Studies at Goldsmiths University of London in 2014. At the moment of writing the final manuscript, merely three years later, none of these institutes exist anymore. Some have completely disappeared, others have merged with others into new constellations, and in other cases some parts remained and transformed into new organizations, continuing some things while letting go of others. The main cases I analyzed for this book continue to thrive, despite chang- ing social situations and ongoing technical updates. I want to thank all the artists I worked with for their endurance and for convinc- ing me to allocate part of my time to their works’ survival, – in whatever way or version it may be – in particular, Blast Theory, Constant Dullaart, Dave Griffiths, JODI, Aymeric Mansoux, Martine Neddam and Marloes de Valk. I am also grate- ful to Matthew Fuller and Olga Goriunova for their enduring support, critical commentaries and fun, as well as Mark Poysden for his splendid editorial work in general, his acerbic wit and exasperating meticulousness. Once my quest to explore the world of conservation began, I was grateful to be able to join the project New Strategies in the Conservation of Contemporary Art, a collaborative research undertaken by Maastricht University, the University of Amsterdam and the Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands. The knowledge I have gained in the area of conservation is largely due to the countless fascinating stories, support and constructive feedback in our many meetings. Special thanks go to Renée van de Vall, Vivian van Saaze, Angela Matyssek, Tatja Scholte, IJs- brand Hummelen, Sanneke Sigter, Hanna Hölling, Deborah Cherry, as well as Ariane Noël de Tilly, Paolo Martore, and Panda de Haan for our many exciting discussions – and those yet to come! My practical knowledge of conservation continued to grow after finish- ing my PhD, for which I would like to acknowledge the invaluable support of Gaby Wijers (Lima), Pip Laurenson (Tate), Patricia Falcão (Tate), Joanna Phil- lips (Guggenheim), Mark Hellar (Hellar Studios LLC/SFMOMA), Deena Engel x Acknowledgements (NYU), Dragan Espenschied (Rhizome), Agathe Jarczyk (Hochschule der Kün- ste Bern), Arnaud Obermann (Staatsgalerie Stuttgart), Ben Fino-Radin (Small Data Industries), Kate Lewis (MoMA), Klaus Rechert (University of Freiburg/ bwFLA), Martina Haidvogl (SFMOMA), Emanuel Lorrain (Packed), Morgane Stricot (ZKM-Centre for Art and Media Karlsruhe), Claudia Röck (University of Amsterdam), Dušan Barok (University of Amsterdam) and Julie Boschat Thorez. Furthermore, I would like to thank those who encouraged me in the past years to continue pursuing the publication of this book, I am grateful for the inspir- ing conversations and the support you gave me – Christiane Paul, Juan Martín Prada, Beryl Graham, Sarah Cook, Gabriella Giannachi, Jill Sterrett, Layna White, Susan Collins, Ann Butler, Paul O’Neill, Edward Shanken, Tina Basta- jian, Andrew Dewdney, Katrina Sluis, Magda Tyzlik-Carver and the students and researchers of the Centre for the Study of the Networked Image at London South Bank University. I am happy to acknowledge that parts of the introduction and of Chapters 3 and 5 dedicated to JODI and mouchette.org were previously published in Christiane Paul’s edited volume A Companion to Digital Art (New York: Wiley-Blackwell, 2016); some of the section on ‘authentic alliances’ in Chapter 5 was published in Authenticity in Transition, edited by Erma Hermens and Frances Robertson (London: Archetype Publications, 2016); and parts on the conservation of mou- chette.org were published by Necsus. European Journal of Media Studies (in #5 Traces, June 2014); excerpts from Chapter 2 about the documentation approach of Blast Theory were published in Preserving and Exhibiting Media Art: Challenges and Perspectives, edited by Cosetta Saba, Julia Noordegraaf, Barbara Le Maître, Vinzenz Hediger (Amsterdam: University of Amsterdam Press, 2013); and finally, the ideas about boundary objects in Chapter 2 were previously published as a co-authored article with Vivian van Saaze in the International Journal of Perfor- mance Arts and Digital Media (Vol. 9, No. 1, 2013). I am deeply grateful to the editors (and the reviewers) of these volumes for their critical feedback and gener- ous support. After this initial publication, their comments kept resonating when rewriting and re-contextualizing these sections for this book. Last but not least, I want to thank those of you who supported me throughout by making time for coffee, drinks, walks, dinners or providing chocolate while trying to understand what I was doing. To enduring and evolving friendships! A special mention to Annette Wolfsberger for her everlasting enthusiasm and for allowing me indefinite access to her Facebook account, and Ward ten Voorde for his lone- some summer holiday. The research in this book was partly realized with the financial support of Vir- tueel Platform (2008–11), SKOR (Foundation for Art and Public Domain) (2012– 3), Mondriaan Fund (2013), and the Creative Industries Fund NL, digital culture (2016).

  • Nude in Winter by Francine Sterle (Tupelo Press, 2006)
    Readers’ Companion and Study Guide: Nude in Winter by Francine Sterle (Tupelo Press, 2006) Introduction Nude in Winter is composed entirely of poems written in response to visual art. Any literary representation of visual art is called “ekphrasis,” from the Greek words ek (out) and phrazein (tell, declare, pronounce). The term was first employed by Greek rhetoricians to denote a vivid, visual description, but over the centuries, it has undergone several shifts in meaning. In its earliest, somewhat restricted sense, ekphrasis focused on literal perception, i.e., writers simply described what was in front of them. The ideal was to capture in words what they saw on the canvas. Over time, writers began to balance the literal and the figural by using the painting as a catalyst not only for describing but also for addressing and reflecting upon the subject of the work. Perhaps Leo Spitzer’s definition, from his 1962 essay on Keats’s “Ode to a Grecian Urn,” comes closest to our present conception of the word: “the poetical description of a pictorial or sculptural work of art.” Poets often turn to visual art as a springboard for new work. By entering the artist’s spatial realm for inspiration and engaging with a painting, photograph, or sculpture, poets learn to address an original piece of art and give it a voice. Responding to visual art requires an intense, absorbed state of mind and leads to leaps in perception and experience. Writing is not only a matter of learning to write but also of learning to see. We improve our writing by improving our perception.
