Investigations Into the Interrelationships of the Digital, Painting, and Photography

The DigitalPaintingPhotography international online symposium is the third event in the series of investigations that began with PaintingDigitalPhotography and PhotographyDigitalPainting into how artists and theorists currently engage with the interrelationships of the digital, painting, and photography. The first symposiums revealed the breadth of work and analysis being undertaken in this area, and as ongoing developments of digital technologies unmoor the sense of location of traditional mediums it is evident that the vast range of interlinked practices in this field require much further explication. This third event therefore aims to look deeper into these connections by asking how the natures of the digital, painting, and photography are being redefined through hybridized and synthesized contemporary art practices, and what theories are being developed to support this. In what ways do these mediums inflect/infect one another, what does this fusion tell us about their discrete natures, and what new forms are created through this combination?
