"Call for Artists: Digital2004 - 6th International Digital Print"

Staten Island, NY,
USA United States of America
he New York Hall of
Science INTRODUCTION TOMORROW The inspiration for
this year's international digital print exhibition emanates directly
from the history of the venue itself. The New York Hall of Science
was built as one of the pavilions of the 1964-1965 New York
World's Fair, and was one of the most ambitious in the USA until
that time. There is, of course, a long tradition of civilized cultures
celebrating their current scientific and technological innovations
through futuristic displays at international expositions, today often
called World Expos. For Digital2004, we invite around artists the
world who produce digital prints, to presage "tomorrow" by
showing us their visionary images of what they believe science
and technology will produce for our futures.
<>What will our products
and world look like, on and off this planet, or perhaps beneath its
oceans? At a time when digital technology and the information
super-highway have impacted the artworld perhaps more
drastically than most other professions, we anticipate that this
unique mirror of society's values and aspirations for science and
technology may prove surprising! Juror: Anne Barlow is Curator
of Education and Media Programs at the New Museum of
Contemporary Art, New York City. PROSPECTUS & ENTRY FORM Our past Digital Print
exhibitions can be viewed at: Digital'02 Digital'01 Digital'00
Digital'99 Digital'98 We look forward to seeing and exhibiting
your work! Art & Science Collaborations, Inc. (ASCI) is a 16-year
old non-profit organization based in New York City. Its seminal
1998 public panel discussion: "Collectibility & the Digital Print" and
subsequent digital print exhibitions, were instrumental in
educating artists, curators and gallerists about the archivability of
digital inks, thus assisting the assimilation of this new media into
the mainstream New York artworld. Digital2004 is a fundraising
event that supports the online exhibition and ASCI's continued
work on behalf of the art-sci-tech community. ASCI's new website:
