Author: Ursula Ströbele & Mara-Johanna Kölmel (eds.)
Digital technologies have profoundly impacted the arts and expanded the field of sculpture since the 1950s. Art history, however, continues to pay little attention to sculptural works that are conceived using digital technologies. For the first time, this publication brings together international and trans-historical research perspectives to explore how digital technologies reconfigure the understanding of sculpture and the sculptural leading into the (post-)digital age.How can we rethink the artistic medium in relation to our technological present and its historical precursors? A number of theoretical approaches discuss the implications of the so-called ‘Aesthetics of the Digital’, referring, above all, to screen-based phenomena.
