Atelier Nord
Atelier Nord focuses on new media art, with new forms and new content – especially technology-intensive art. These fields are characterized by instability in relation to production, distribution and how they are communicated. Atelier Nord’s engagement with new media art aims to establish suitable conditions for the production and distribution of new media art, an increased understanding of these art forms, as well as a strengthening of the critical discussion within the field. New media art must be integrated into the established art system in such a way that its distinctive experiences and references become an integrated part of the art world.
