Screen Walks
Description
In Screen Walks, a series of live-streamed explorations of digital spaces, selected artists and researchers investigate artistic strategies taking place online. The project gives an insight into practices using the screen as a medium. Artists, curators and researchers are invited to perform live-streamed explorations of the digital spaces where their core practice takes place. Every Screen Walk is different, as the guest artists of the programme share their screen and walk the viewers through their work, as a desktop performance of sorts. From re-contextualising imagery found on online marketplaces and uncovering data brokers’ invisible circulation of images to analysing in-game photography and the social, political and economic implications of games – Screen Walks examines various approaches, offers a behind-the-scenes look at artists' work and uncovers new, current and forgotten digital spaces.
Screen Walks is a collaborative project by Fotomuseum Winterthur and The Photographers' Gallery, investigating the changing role of the photographic image in its networked and digital forms.
