Blogging and the Arts

"Rhizome.org Director of Technology Francis Hwang will lead a panel discussion entitled 'Blogging and the Arts'. The panel includes artist Kabir Carter, photoblogger and journalist David Gallagher, artist and critic Tom Moody, and artist T.Whid. The discussion will address questions such as whether blogs will change the nature of discourse in the fine arts field, and ways that artists and critics are integrating this new form of communications into their own work."

Tuesday, November 23, 6:30-8pm
New Museum of Contemporary Art / Chelsea
556 West 22nd Street

Moody gives a preview of his thoughts... on his blog.

I will otherwise disposed, but obviously of interest to me. At this point, I think the art blogging "community" or "gang" is a small group talking mostly amongst ourselves. That could change, and its not necessarily a bad thing. Oddly, I couldn't give a rip about artists blogging. They tend towards the self-indulgent.

Thanks for the tip, Eliot.
