/ecm diskurs 40: Learning from Shadow Libraries

Lecture: Cornelia Sollfrank, Artist, Researcher and University Lecturer, Berlin
Moderation: Martina Griesser, /ecm Leitungsteam

In her talk Cornelia Sollfrank will give an introduction to the idea of "shadow libraries“ in general and put a special emphasis on digital archival projects that have been initiated by artists. While these artistic shadow libraries all provide functional solutions to problems of access and preservation, they can also be discussed as discursive projects that address a variety of problems in times of increasing enclosures.
