The International Digital Art History Summer School (DAHSS), a joint initiative of the University of Málaga and the University of Berkeley, with the collaboration of the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, the Fundación General de la Universidad de Málaga, and the HDH, will celebrate the sixth edition from August 30-September 4, 2021. Due to the COVID-19 situation, the Summer School will be once again all online.
2021 Theme: Digital Exhibitions
The lockdown caused by the covid-19 pandemic has brought with it a substantial increase of the so-called digital exhibitions. While digital / virtual / online exhibitions are not a new phenomenon, it is true that the pandemic conditions have placed them at the center of the curatorial activities in museums, art centers and galleries. The rediscovery of digital / virtual / online exhibitions appears ambivalent: it is expected that this centrality will become a stimulus to promote new avenues for research and experimentation. However, we also run the risk of falling into a certain Adamism that takes us back to debates already overcome. Therefore, it is crucial to focus the attention on the concept and practice of digital/online/virtual exhibitions to reposition their problems within the framework of our post-digital and post-human present.
