Forging the Future principals Christiane Paul and Carol Stringari, as well as fellow travellers Sarah Cook and Steve Dietz, present Christiane’s new anthology “New Media in the White Cube” at 5:30pm today at Eyebeam Atelier in New York. The book includes essays on variable media presentation and preservation by the assembled speakers as well as Forging members Caitlin Jones and Jon Ippolito.
Perhaps Eyebeam is more friendly to new media than many of the art world’s white cubes, but its proximity to nearby Chelsea galleries and New York museums makes this a good venue to discuss many of the subjects raised in the book, from whether to stockpile installation equipment to how to display Internet art in a gallery.
