Published by Media Arts Lab, K\u00fcnstlerhaus Bethanien. This catalog was published as the completion of the symposia “NetSplit” and “ESC”, hosted by Media Arts Lab, K\u00fcnstlerhaus Bethanien in 2001 and 2002.<\/p>\n
How can Net Art die, as long as the Internet is still alive? And yet the first farewell to the young art movement appeared as early as 1999, and the protagonists of “net.art” withdrew from the scene. So is it impossible to create art with the Internet? Of course, that’s not the case, and Internet art will continue. But the Utopia of producing art outside of the art business, an art interconnected with society as a whole – that is dead. The 76 page reader ESC includes 6 essays and a chronology of early Net Art, and explains why the art business would do well to mourn the death of this Utopia.\u00a0Net Art was not a passing fashion for the art business, but a Utopia. Employing irony, it sought to free art from monologue and rescue it from the museums. Since 1999 the protagonists of the movement have turned their backs on Net Art. At the end of February, the Media Arts Lab will be publishing a 76-page catalogue with discussions on Net Art, Net artists and a chronology of the most important Net Art projects between 1995 and 1999.<\/p>\n
