This is an online event. You will receive a Zoom link upon registration.ART HISTORY AND THE DIGITALA conversation with Yael Rice (Amherst College), Nancy Um (Getty Research Institute), Deepthi Murali (George Mason University) and Priya Jaradi (National University Singapore, National Gallery Singapore and Singapore Art Museum).The digital mediates nearly every aspect of the work that we, as art historians, do today: from word processing, smartphone photography, and image file storage to museum and library database searches. More than merely a tool, the digital carries the potential to radically transform the means by which we perceive, document, preserve, organize, and present the objects and spaces that we study. This roundtable brings together specialists from across the discipline to reflect on the possibilities—and risks—that the digital holds for the future of art history practice and pedagogy. It weighs, in particular, how computers and datafication have and may still come to bear on the care of museum and library collections.

This event is part of the 2023 Sydney Asian Art Series, presented by the Power Institute and VisAsia at the Art Gallery of NSW.<a href="https://www.powerpublications.com.au/saas2023/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Learn more about the series here. </a>
