About this book

Digitale Technologien haben die Künste grundlegend geprägt und das Feld der Skulptur seit den 1950er­Jah­ren erweitert. Die Kunstgeschichte schenkt jedoch skulpturalen Werken, die mithilfe von Computerprogram­men konzipiert und "materialisiert" wurden, bisher wenig Aufmerksamkeit. Wie lässt sich das Skulpturale in Bezug auf unsere technologische Gegenwart und seine historischen Vorläufer weiter­ denken? Einige theoretische Ansätze diskutieren die Implikationen einer sogenannten "Ästhetik des Digitalen"; sie beziehen sich vor allem auf bild­schirmbasierte Phänomene. Erstmals werden in dieser Publikation internatio­nale, transhistorische Forschungsper­spektiven vereint, die sich damit auseinandersetzen, wie das Verständnis des Skulpturalen bis ins Zeitalter des (Post­)Digitalen konfiguriert wird.

  • Aktuelle Forschung zur Erweiterung des Skulpturbegriffs durch digitale Technologien
  • Verbindung historischer skulpturaler Debatten mit Diskursen um Neue Medien und (post-)digitale Kultur
