Art Made for the Browser, Taken Seriously

Michael Connor, who shares the directorship of Rhizome, sat down with Ben Davis for a long conversation about art built for the web: how it started, and where it may be going. For collectors used to a canvas on the wall or a lot number in a catalog, it is a different kind of object, one that lives in a browser window. Hearing it discussed at this length, with its past laid out and its future treated as an open question, is a reminder that this is a field with its own lineage. It deserves the same careful attention we give to any other medium that changes hands.
