On June 12, 2008, Sundaram Tagore will offer introductory remarks on the seismic shift that globalization has created in the art world. Ten years ago, New York was the center of the art world—in terms of galleries, museum shows, and the market. A handful of arts institutions, curators, gallerists, and critics dictated the terms of any critical discussion about art. Today, cities around the world have their own developing and thriving markets. The age where a few artists commanded worldwide recognition is over and today, each country is developing its own artistic movements and stars. In the absence of a “central authority” how does one go about distinguishing what’s relevant? This introduction will be followed by a question-and-answer conversation with Mr. Tagore.
Following the discussion with Sundaram Tagore, German artist Fré Ilgen will present:
Art = Brain + Hand +Technology
Technology is continuing to lead to new methods and new machines to support man in his ambitions and pursuits. Technology does this in part by specializing in the intermediary function between man and his environment, wherever that environment might be. For more than a decade, high tech companies and technology developers, aware of the fact that better technology is that which can be intuitively used by the end-user for as-yet-to-be-determined purposes, have spent millions in research into the creative process and specifically that process which involves man using principally his hands to interact with the environment.
On June 18, 2008, MITEF presents, The Web of Location: Location Based Services, Geo-tagging, and Map Masshups.
