A Fiatal Fotóművészek Stúdiójának szervezésében hangzott el az alábbi előadás, angol nyelven
újfajta vizualizációs technikákról, interaktív grafikus megjelenítők és adatbázisok összeépítéséről.
Modernist photography has long been the subject of intensive scholarly and artistic interest, but its Hungarian context remains unknown to many researchers outside of the country. Digital tools can inspire new inquiry into this period of photography by facilitating access to archives and presenting information in different formats. Rather than consuming other media, digital resources can work in tandem with print books and exhibitions.
This talk will open onto a discussion of how we—as artists, researchers, curators, and historians—can take advantage of the internet’s potential to share information about art, both historical and contemporary, in innovative ways.
