<< preface

this blog is nina wenhart's collection of resources on the various histories of new media art. it consists mainly of non or very little edited material i found flaneuring on the net, sometimes with my own annotations and comments, sometimes it's also textparts i retyped from books that are out of print.

it is also meant to be an additional resource of information and recommended reading for my students of the prehystories of new media class that i teach at the school of the art institute of chicago in fall 2008.

the focus is on the time period from the beginning of the 20th century up to today.

celebrating the 100th international women's day - 100 female artists and digital media

(i originally posted this list on p/art//icles before)

This project was done on March 8th, 2011, the 100th anniversary of the International Women's Day. Throughout the day I had been posting female artists working in the field of New Media Art to twitter and facebook. The goal was to post 100 artists for the 100th anniversary.

a short notice:
A few of the artists included might or might not be women. After 100 years of the celebration of International Women's Day what it means to be female has to be expanded and embrace gender rather than sex.

This list of 100+ female media artists is necessarily incomplete, please add more artists in the comments field! (the focus here is on artists + digital media; curators, theoreticians,... will be the focus of a separate project)
There is absolutely no intended order in this list. The entries on top were the last ones, the entries on the bottom of the list the starting points.


enjoy!
