ABOUT THE ONLINE SYMPOSIUM

The influence of digitalization on the visibility of art and artists cannot be analyzed simply and conclusively.
Various factors, such as history, politics, technical approaches, but also aesthetic questions, play a role in clarifying where which art is shown and perceived by whom.

Researchers of the CRC 1187 “Media of Cooperation” and the Graduate School “Locating Media” of the University of Siegen, both funded by the DFG, in cooperation with the chair of Aesthetic Education of the Institute for Art and Art Theory of the University of Cologne, have invited artists, academics, and cultural practitioners to discuss the (in-)visibility of art in the context of globalization and digitalization – the potentials, the risks and the implications for us as a society.

The Symposium “(In)Visibility of Art” will take place fully online on Saturday, November 21, 2020 from 3-8pm (CET).
