Visiting NY curator in MarchCRUMB is happy to host New York based media theorist and curator Caitlin Jones who
joins CRUMB for research and events as part of the Inspiring
Internationalists Programme (http://inspiringinternationalists.wordpress.com/).

As part of AV Festival , Caitlin will be running a workshop on Wednesday 5 March 2pm – 5pm, and will be part of the CRUMB @ Home event on Saturday 8 March 10am – 12noon.

On the CRUMB website, the theme for discussion in February concerns writing about art
that is ephemeral, broadcast, or 'live' .

Caitlin Jones has a Masters of Arts degree in Archival Studies and has worked as assistant curator at the Guggenheim Museum, including working on the important inter-museum research project, The Variable Media Initiative which sought to identify and analyse the challenges of collecting/archiving and documenting sculpture, fine art, new media art, and video. She also curated the Guggenheim exhibition Seeing Double: Emulation in Theory and Practice, which paired older and newer versions of new media artworks including those by Cory Arcangel and Grahame Weinbren. She has worked for commercial
galleries in New York, and has sold new media works by Vuk Cosic and Thomson &
Craighead to major collectors. She has written for Rhizome.org and The
Believer.


CRUMB receives funding from the Arts and Humanities Research
Council and the Leverhulme Trust. This event receives funding
from Arts Council England Inspiring Internationalists programme.
