The Museum der Moderne Salzburg mounts the first-ever comprehensive retrospective of the activities of Experiments in Art and Technology [email protected] www.museumdermoderne.at (E.A.T.), a unique association of engineers and artists who wrote history in the 1960s and 1970s. Artists like Robert Rauschenberg (1925–2008) and Robert Whitman (b. 1935) teamed up with Billy Klüver (1927–2004), a visionary technologist at Bell Telephone Laboratories, and his colleague Fred Waldhauer (1927–1993) to launch a groundbreaking initiative that would realize works of art in an unprecedented collaborative effort. The Museum der Moderne Salzburg dedicates two levels of its temporary exhibition galleries on the Mönchsberg with over 16,000 sq ft of floor space to this seminal venture fusing art and technology; around two hundred works of art and projects ranging from kinetic objects, installations, and performances to films, videos, and photographs as well as drawings and prints exemplify the most important stages of E.A.T.’s evolution. “In the past smaller exhibitions have highlighted the best-known events in E.A.T.’s history, but a comprehensive panorama of the group’s activities that reveals the full range and diversity of E.A.T.’s output has long been overdue.

    Contemporary Art and New Media: Hybrid Discourse Or Digital Divide?

    21 Contemporary Art and New Media Digital Divide or Hybrid Discourse? Edward A. Shanken Since the mid‐1990s, new media art (NMA) has become an important force for economic and cultural development internationally, establishing its own major institutions.1 Collaborative, transdisciplinary research at the intersections of art, science, and technology also has gained esteem and institutional support, with inter- disciplinary PhD programs proliferating around the world. During the same period, mainstream contemporary art (MCA) experienced dramatic growth in its market and popularity, propelled by economic prosperity and the propagation of interna- tional museums, art fairs, and biennial exhibitions. This dynamic environment has nurtured tremendous creativity and invention by artists, curators, theorists, and pedagogues operating in both domains. Yet rarely does the mainstream artworld converge with the new media artworld. As a result, their discourses have become increasingly divergent. MCA practice and writing are remarkably rich with ideas about the relationship between art and society. Indeed, they are frequently engaged with issues that pertain to global connectivity and sociability in digital, networked culture. Given the proliferation of computation and the Internet, it perhaps was inevitable that central discourses in MCA would employ, if not appropriate, key terms of digital culture, such as “interactivity,” “participation,” “programming,” and “networks.” But the use of these terms in MCA literature typically lacks a deep understanding of the scientific and technological mechanisms of new media, the critical discourses that theorize their implications, and the interdisciplinary artistic practices that are co‐extensive with them. Similarly, mainstream discourses typically dismiss NMA on the basis of its technological form or immateriality, without fully appreciating its theoretical richness, or the conceptual parallels it shares with MCA.
