Current: An Experiment in Collecting Digital Art
An exhibition, acquisition and debate, presented in partnership by the Harris Museum & Art Gallery and folly.
 
Artists working in digital media are invited to propose work for a public display at and acquisition by the Harris Museum & Art Gallery, Preston, as part of 'Current: an Experiment in Collecting Digital Art'.
This project not only celebrates innovative and creative use of new media technology, but forms a pioneering practical case study for the collection and integration of digital artworks into existing permanent collections; furthering the Harris' quest to establish a nationally significant collection of new media art.
 
An expert advisory panel will select 3 - 5 artists to exhibit at the Harris from 25th March - 4th June 2011, from which one artwork will be selected by a secondary expert panel for acquisition into the Harris' permanent collection.
 
A public debate will be held in May 2011 to analyse the experiment and share findings and best practice on collecting digital art.
