Join Eyebeam on December 10 for an intimate conversation between celebrated curator Barbara London, and video and performance art pioneer Joan Jonas.
For four decades, Barbara London paved the way for media artists at MoMA, founding the museum’s video and media art collection and curating its first ever show on sound art. Jonas is widely regarded as one of the most important artists of our time, whose experiments and productions in the late 1960s and early 1970s continue to be crucial to the development of many contemporary art genres.
As two central figures in the field of media art, Jonas and London’s professional relationship spans over forty years of collaboration. In this special one-on-one conversation, the two will chart the evolution of emerging technologies and their impact on artmaking through three of Jonas’s breakthrough artworks from 1972 through the present.
