Omar Kholeif is the author, co-author, and editor of over 30 books, of which seven have focused on the concept of internet art. Their anthology, You Are Here: Art After the Internet from 2013 is widely acknowledged as the first book to look at ‘post-internet art’ and is taught globally.
In this ‘Authored’ conversation, Dr. Kholeif reflects on their recent books including, Goodbye, World! Looking at Art in the Digital Age (Sternberg Press) and offers an informal sneak peek of their forthcoming monograph, five years in the making, Internet/Art: From the World Wide Web to the Rise of NFTs, which is forthcoming from Phaidon early next year.
Omar Kholeif is in-conversation with Turner-Prize Winning Artist and "Private Ear" Lawrence Abu Hamdan, as they touch upon issues from the birth of the WWW to the world of cryptocurrency.
