Grau, OliverHoth, JaninaWandl-Vogt, Eveline2020-02-172020-02-172019978-3-903150-52-2https://mediarep.org/handle/doc/14282Digital art challenges archiving, collecting and preserving methods within and outside of gallery, library, archive and museum (GLAM) institutions. By its media, art in the digital sphere is processual, contextual, modular and ephemeral, and its creative process is collaborative. From artists, scholars, technicians and conservators – to preserve this contemporary art is a transdisciplinary task. This book brings together leading international experts from digital art theory and preservation, digital humanities, collection management, conservation and media art histories. In a transdisciplinary approach, theoretic and practice-based research from these stakeholders in art, research, education and exhibition are presented to create an overview of present preservation methods and discuss demands and opportunities for the future. Finally, the need for a new appropriate museum and archive infrastructure is shown to preserve the art of our time.<ul> <li><a href ='https://doi.org/10.25969/mediarep/13339'>Oliver Grau et al.: <i>Introduction</i></a></li> </ul> <h4>Early New Media Art.
