Art and Money Online Symposium
Tate Britain, London, UK
Friday 4 May 2001
10.30 - 16.30 (British Summer Time)

Curators of new media, net activists, writers and artists discuss the link 
between  global capitalism and digital art

"The war between expression and commerce is a very rich subject, of which 
the issues directly touching Art are just the tiniest tip of the iceberg"
(Ray Thomas and Frank Guerrero, RTMark)

This symposium responds to Tate Britain's Art and Money Online (6 March to 
3 June) Art Now exhibition 
<http://www.tate.org.uk/britain/exhibitions/artnwnet.htm>, with a series of 
panel discussions and talks which critically question the links between 
capitalism and digital art.

Representatives from RTMark deliver the keynote address.

Other invited speakers include:
-  Benjamin Weil - SFMOMA
- Josephine Berry of Mute Magazine
- Cutting Edge: The Women's Research Group
- John Tomlinson, Nottingham Trent University
- Jon Thomson and Alison Craighead, artists
- James Wallbank from Redundant Technology Initiative.

This day asks whether net artists’ opposition to capitalism is plausible or 
desirable in the current economic condition. A fresh and interdisciplinary 
approach is taken to this visual politics debate as economists, 
geographers, and writers add their views. Parallel sessions on 
globalisation and gender, culture and technology, astrology, and web site 
construction are also included.

Fee: £15 (£7 concessions) includes refreshments
For tickets:  (+ 44) 020 7887 8888
