Event description

Screenic is an anthology of Philip Brophy’s writing on art, published from 2000 onwards. The focus of the selection is on art that involves screens: projected as film in museums, digitised for installations in galleries, curated as documents within exhibitions, presented as outdoor illuminations on buildings, utilised for the production of VR and AI-generated content, & even wall murals derived from televisual screens. Together, the articles reinforce the view that ongoing changes taking place in the mediascape over the last two decades create challenges for artists, producers, curators, viewers, and critics—sometimes resulting in a rejuvenation of how media art can be imagined and presented, other times evidencing an anaemic grasp of the contemporary mediascape that whorls outside the white cube.

The book is edited by Helen Hughes and Olga Bennett, with an introduction by Emile Zile. Designed by James Vinciguerra and Duncan Blachford.

Co-presented by the Power Institute, Film Studies at the University of Sydney and Verge Gallery.
