The Culture Beat and New Media: Arts Journalism in the Internet Era

November 12, 2009 5:00pm-7:00pm Add to my calendar

Newspapers and magazines are reducing their critical coverage of the arts, but the human appetite to evaluate culture, to debate reactions and opinions, remains as vibrant as ever. Panelists Doug McLennan (editor of ArtsJournal.com) and Bill Marx (editor of TheArtsFuse.com) will discuss how cyberspace is transforming arts journalism, in some cases radically redefining its form and content. The forum will debate what critical values from the traditional media should survive, explore how digital media is changing the ways we articulate our responses to the arts, and point to promising contemporary business models and experiments in cultural coverage.

Speaker(s):

William Marx, Theartsfuse.com; Doug McLennan, Artsjournal.com
