The role of the artist, art viewer and art object continues to shift in the digital environment. With the increasing sophistication of digital technologies and practices, the boundaries of work and environment become blurred, creating new opportunities and deep challenges for art institutions. What are these opportunities and challenges? How are new media practices responding to them? What does the future hold? The Curating New Media panel for Cultural Futures brings leading international experts together to share their knowledge of the field. It is a must for contemporary art curators, educators, and artists.

Location: St Paul Street Gallery, Auckland University of Technology

Cost: $50/$30 at the door, free with Cultural Futures registration
