Sketchbook Theme* for two weeks
For the next two weeks, your sketchbook entries will address the following topic.
Collect 5 net.art pieces that consider the same theme. Choose a theme that is interesting to you! For example, if you love painting then look for Internet Art that refers to painting like Manetas. If you are interested in video games, then look for artwork like Arcangel. Themes can range from Moses to Wikipedia, just don’t choose identity. Below is a short list of Internet Art exhibitions:
Net Art’s Cyborg[feminist]s, Punks and Manifestos
During this week, think about your theme. Do some initial research to make sure you can find net.art that connects. Do not include art that happens to be displayed on the internet– this should be artwork made for the internet. Read the “Neen Manifesto” for more information about the nature of Internet Art. By Monday, April 12th, write a post that describes your theme and why you chose it.
Next, make 5 sketchbook posts that link and describe your selections. Like last week’s sketchbook, you need to add an “image & link” to your blog. See last week’s post for detailed directions about what to include in each post. This should be finished by Monday, April 19th.
