The Browser as Gallery: Rhizome's Michael Connor Takes the Long View

· 1 min read

Michael Connor, who co-leads the digital art organization Rhizome, sat down with critic Ben Davis to trace how art made for the web began and where it may go from here. Art like this lives on a screen rather than a wall, and it gets passed around by link, not carried through a door. For collectors who follow how new kinds of work find their audience and their keepers, that is reason enough to hear him out. The talk looks back and also ahead, with one of the field's leading custodians giving his view of what comes next.

With reporting from Artnet News.
