Description
A new history of digital art from the 1960s to the present day, with decade-by-decade essays exploring evolving digital art practices, alongside interviews with artists, gallerists, museum curators, and collectors.

This new, image-led history of global digital art from the 1960s to the present day draws on the V&A’s rich collection while linking the digital art scene to wider art and design histories, and to their social, political, and technological contexts. Decade-by-decade essays by leading authorities explore evolving digital art practices, and a series of interviews and discussions with prominent artists, gallerists, museum curators, and collectors from the world of digital art offer fascinating insights into the subject.

Digital Art: 1960s to Now explores ideas of artificial intelligence, computer animation, simulation, and cybernetics. Global in reach, it features historic works from pioneering artists such as Analivia Cordeiro, Eduardo Mac Entyre, Manfred Mohr, Vera Molnar, and Frieder Nake, alongside renowned contemporary artists such as Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley, Harm van den Dorpel, Trevor Paglen, Anna Ridler, and Nye Thompson.
