NYC Digital Art History

Public Group active 1 year, 1 month ago

Mission:
The New York City Digital Art History (NYC-DAH) group brings together local institutions and individuals with an interest in the practice of digital art history. The NYC-DAH is an opportunity for art historians, artists, curators, conservators, students, and members of the GLAM community (galleries, libraries, archives, museums) to meet each other and share knowledge, projects, and initiate collaboration.

The immediate goal of the group is community building. Through the NYC-DH website and community activities, the group aims to connect key institutions and individuals, and build a dynamic network of digital art historians, designers and engineers.

Our first workshop took place on February 11, 2016 at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University. Join the NYC DAH group to get updates on the group’s activity and upcoming events.

NYC-DAH Steering Group:
Chair: Jason Varone, The Institute of Fine Arts, NYU
Burcak Ozludil Altin, New Jersey Institute of Technology
Matthew Israel, Artsy
Gabriel Rodriguez, Columbia University
Katharine Wright, The Metropolitan Museum of Art

      international group of conservators and curators and is now

      mo.ma/picabia_conservation

      This publication builds on the unique opportunity for technical study
      occasioned by the exhibition *Francis Picabia: Our Heads Are Round so Our
      Thoughts Can Change Direction*, organized by MoMA and the Kunsthaus Zurich
      which brought together over 200 works, and provided an overview of
      Picabia’s unruly genius as manifested over the course of a fifty-plus-year
      career. Each individual object essay is complemented by a wealth of
      technical illustrations, including x-rays, ultraviolet, infrared, and
      raking light images. A selected bibliography is included for readers who
      wish to delve deeper into the technical and historical literature on the
      artist.
