<p><strong>Art Topic</strong> is an art discussion segment about intriguing art themes, or exciting new approaches to classic art topics in visual arts, with art experts, thinkers or curators. This time, host and art writer Joana P. R. Neves shares some insights about art spaces in light of our presence in online spaces, through her relatively new role as a female podcaster.</p><p><br></p><p>A part of our work and leisure is spent online and so is our art. Posted on social media and even made with the help of AI, LLMs, and more, creative initiatives and art objects may now also live in online art spaces. Is an art podcast to be confused with it? What are the joys and dangers of real art spaces becoming virtual ones? Or is the danger elsewhere, and the art education potentially everywhere? </p><p><br></p><p>Does being present online affect our presence IRL in galleries, museums and art spaces in general? Two exhibitions stimulated this critique of digital engagement and creativity: Peter Doig's House of Music and Danielle Brathwaite Shirley's The Delusion at the Serpentine gallery. Before we visit the two exhibitions, and proposing an art review of sorts, Joana analyses how her work as an art podcaster provides insights into the realities of new technologies, creativity, the social feedback loop and having a sentient body.</p><p>Art spaces can and should help us understand the impact of the internet and AI on our humanity.</p><p><br></p><p>For further reading, Joana has written extensively on Substack about the reception of art, spectatorship and the exhibitions aforementioned: <a href="https://joanaprneves.substack.com/p/the-comedy-of-contemporary-art" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://joanaprneves.substack.com/p/the-comedy-of-contemporary-art</a></p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe to Exhibitionistas on our Substack page. </p><p>Exhibitionistas Files on Substack: <a href="https://joanaprneves.substack.com/s/exhibitionistas" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://joanaprneves.substack.com/s/exhibitionistas</a></p><p><br></p><p>Donating allows us to produce more and better. </p><p>Think about this: you would not leave a shop, coffee in hand, without paying for it. </p><p>Compensate the work.</p><p><br></p><p>So, if a membership is too much, leave us a tip: <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/exhibitionista" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://buymeacoffee.com/exhibitionista</a></p><p><br></p><p>If you're interested in a membership and the perks that come with it go to our Substack memberships</p><p>https://joanaprneves.substack.com/sub...</p><p><br></p><p>For more flexible donations: https://exhibitionistaspodcast.com/su...</p><p><br></p><p>Host & FounderExhibitionistas is hosted by Joana P.
