Product Description
The curator who founded MoMA s video program recounts the artists and events that defined the medium s first 50 yearsThe curator who founded MoMA s video program recounts the artists and events that defined the medium s first 50 yearsSince the introduction of portable consumer electronics nearly a half century ago, artists throughout the world have adapted the latest technologies to art-making. In this book, curator Barbara London traces the history of video art as it transformed into the broader field of media art from analog to digital, small TV monitors to wall-scale projections, and clunky hardware to user-friendly software. In doing so, she reveals how video evolved from fringe status to be seen as one of the foremost art forms of today.
