STATE OF THE ART – ER, SORT OF

For the first time this year, the Whitney Biennial includes internet art. But “it’s clear that if 2000 is remembered as a turning point in the history of Internet art, it may be not because of the Biennial but in spite of it. It took the Whitney until five days after the show opened to get a suite of computers operational in the lower level gallery, despite assurances at the press preview that the computers would be available to viewers as soon as the pre-show parties had ended.” – New Republic
