Electronic Art and How to Show it

Art and Electronic Media discusses how electronic art can be, at times, difficult to show to the public. This can especially be seen in web based art, since the amount of technology and tools to show it can be lot to come up with (pg. 50). One of the other potential difficulties of showing web based art is that it can sometimes take a while to get through it, depending on what it actually is, such as a non-linear narrative. The problem with this is that there has to be a willing viewer to go through it all, and if it is set up in a gallery, then there is the possibility that not everyone will get to see it. While it can be hard to show electronic art in a gallery space, there has been improvements on how to show these types of works, and hopefully we will see more of this as time goes on.
