Curating New Media Art

Since 1993 the School of Arts, Design, Media & Culture has had a special interest in issues for exhibiting new media art (including internet art, and interactive digital media).  The CRUMB web resource for curators http://www.crumbweb.org is now an internationally acclaimed site, which complements the postgraduate work in Fine Art, Curating and Informatics at the University.  A recent AHRC Research Grant enables the continued expansion of this research, with research partners Eyebeam (New York) and Lancaster University.
