<p><img src="http://rhizome.org/imagebase/netartnews/20080602.gif" align="left" hspace="5"><p>The upcoming program in Rhizome's <a href="http://www.newmuseum.org/event_series/new_silent">New Silent Series</a> at the New Museum, <a href="http://www.newmuseum.org/events/190">Net Aesthetics 2.0</a>, will examine the state of contemporary art engaged with internet art. Convening leading artists, critics and curators, this panel will explore salient topics such as the relationship of artists emerging now to the first generation of internet art, the correspondence between online art and offline exhibition (as well as the phenomenon of "internet aware" art), the current role of the artist on the internet, the position of explicit political content in internet art (and the question of whether internet art practice is undergoing a more "formalist" phase), among other directions and challenges faced by this expansive field.</p>
<p>This talk will be the second in a series of Net Aesthetics 2.0 events. Panelists include artists <a href="http://www.petracortright.com/">Petra Cortright</a>, <a href="http://www.mccoyspace.com/">Jennifer and Kevin Mccoy</a>, <a href="http://tommoody.us/">Tom Moody</a>, <a href="http://www.mtaa.net/">Tim Whidden</a> and <a href="http://www.damonzucconi.com/">Damon Zucconi</a> and will be moderated by curator, critic and Rhizome staff writer <a href="http://edhalter.com/">Ed Halter</a>. <a href="http://www.museumtix.com/venue/program.asp?pvt=new&vid=726&pid=2053087&code=&sid=68L3XJ1193AE9N80B3W9QX0NSX8LCPKC">Tickets available here.</a></p>
