Time for Digital Hygiene | Why Analog Art Wonderment is Required Online

Art curator, writer and host Joana P. R. Neves, asks the ultimate art question of art questions: could art appreciation be a powerful combination of the analog and the digital? Even stranger: how does it hinge on the meaning of word "wonder" and "wander"? In a nutshell, are we in need of art digital hygiene? Is Art Wonderment the response to the decline of 20th century art criticism? As ever, Joana gets candid and exposes her own journey into the art digital spaces and social digital platforms? Did you enjoy the episode?
