[Image: Cat Mazza/microRevolt] The New Materiality: Digital Dialogues at the Boundaries of Contemporary Craft :: Panel Discussion with Fo Wilson (moderator), Shaun Bullens, Donald Fortesque, Wendy Maruyama, Cat Mazza, Nathalie Miebach :: June 18, 2010; 12:15 – 1:15 pm :: Kresge Auditorium, Massachusetts Institute for Technology, Cambridge, MA.

Curated by Fo Wilson, The New Materiality: Digital Dialogues at the Boundaries of Contemporary Craft steps beyond the boundaries that currently exist among technology, art, and craft. The artists in this exhibition use new technologies in tandem with traditional craft materials – clay, glass, wood, metal and fiber – to forge new artistic directions.

Digital video and audio, computerized design, and other technologies are viewed as new materials to be exploited, manipulated and co-opted to enrich artistic expression. The New Materiality: Digital Dialogues at the Boundaries of Craft examines this phenomenon and its impact on the world of contemporary craft.

On show at the Fuller Art Museum from May 29, 2010 — February 6, 2011
