This book



Presents documentation as an expanded practice that is radically changing the ways in which to look at, participate in, and generate art.



Brings together expertise from different disciplines and provides an in-depth investigation of the development of documentation as a set of production, circulation and preservation strategies.



Illustrates how these strategies are often led by artists, audiences and museums, the contributions offer new insights into digital art and its history, curation and preservation, through documentation.



By considering documentation as the main method of preserving these art forms, analyses how it can address the inherent challenges of capturing live events, visitor experiences, and evolving artworks.



Will appeal to researchers and students engaged in the study of museums and curation, art and art history, performance, new media and digital art, library and information science, and conservation.
