Technology as a Cultural Interface - Curatorial Practices and Cultural Mediation in Contemporary Art.
Abstract: This article examines how curatorial practices and cultural mediation use technology to connect contemporary art with the public. There has been a lot of talk recently - both in enthusiastic and dystopian terms - about the art of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is the result of a conglomeration of "visual situations", (art) AI that produces novel but plausible images, believable but still fictitious results, art that is constituted by technology. Through concrete examples and case studies, the article highlights how technology has transformed the process by which art is created, perceived and interpreted, and highlights the ethical and practical challenges associated with this technological evolution and inclusion.
Keywords: digital art, cultural mediation through technology, curation today, visual arts and technology
