Contemporary Art Websites
The Yale Arts Library Blog is intended to inform students, staff, and faculty associated with Yale’s Arts Library about current events and ideas in the arts, both at Yale and internationally. We also hope this blog can serve as a resource guide for students in all arts-related disciplines. It is an evolving beast, so check in often to see what’s new and exciting in the arts.
The Timeline of Art History is a chronological, geographical, and thematic exploration of the history of art from around the world, as illustrated by the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection.
Rhizome.org is an online platform for the global new media art community. Our programs support the creation, presentation, discussion and preservation of contemporary art that uses new technologies in significant ways. Rhizome includes ArtBase, an online archive of new media art containing some 2110 art works, and growing. The system of classification consists of terms that artists assign to their work. Artists choose from Rhizome's vocabulary of new media terms as well as adding their own terms. When new terms reach a certain level of popularity they become part of Rhizome's vocabulary. Rhizome also supports Creative Commons licenses.
An online forum for students to display their art, created by the (in)famous British-based Saatchi Gallery.
This site is open for all students studying the visual arts, including fashion, design, applied arts and performing arts.
From Anna Somers Cocks, editor: "When I founded The Art Newspaper in 1990, I noticed that most writing about art forces the subject into a ghetto; it takes it out of the common currencies of life, language and value judgements... The Art Newspaper (and the other newspapers in the network) aims to remedy these obstacles to approaching the world of art. We recognise that the art world is part of ordinary life."
