May 9th, 1999 CYBERART99: seeking solutions Sunday, May 9, 1999; 10am - 5pm Doors Open at 9am The Great Hall @ Cooper Union 7 E. 7th Street, NYC (at 3rd Avenue) It's been four years since ASCI produced what was perhaps the world's first CyberFair at Cooper Union, NYC. Michael Govan, Director of the DIA Center in New York and internationally renowned performance artist, Laurie Anderson were keynotes. The field of cyberart has evolved and changed dramatically since those early days. The issues at the end of the twentieth century are no longer how to get access, how to create your own homepage, or how to use the Internet to make art. Artists have pushed this globally interactive medium in all kinds of creative ways: hypertext poetry, multimedia works, and even live performances. Categories have been created at prestigious international competitions to recognize and reward the best and most innovative work in this newest of digital art media. However, there are pressing questions that need resolution if this young artform is to survive and flourish. At CYBERART'99, you will see and hear how artists and museums are dealing with the unique challenges of this rapidly developing "virtual" art. As a medium that cannot be sustained by the traditional commercial gallery model, webart requires new solutions regarding its production, presentation, and maintenance. This all-day event brings together some of the world's most creative digital minds in a unified effort to invent concrete and viable *new models* of support. The event format is designed to first provide an important historical context--history being a relative term in this field. Highly recognized webart projects that exemplify many innovative U.S. and European support models will be presented in the first half of the program. Then, proposals for four *new models* of support will be shared for public critique and feedback. These proposals will have been created during a month-long online discussion of the panelists prior to the event. We invite our audience members to learn about this vital new artform spawned from recent tele-communications technologies, and to join us in building a viable, formal structure for supporting it.
