The presentation will showcase artworks that reflect the impact of media technologies on society, in an age when digital processes are shaping our actions and inform our understanding of the world. A specific focus will also be on the current situation when museums are faced with lockdowns and strategies to support artists and reach out to audiences online. Examples will come from curatorial projects of Sabine Himmelsbach realized at HeK \u2013 House of Electronic Arts Basel.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sabine Himmelsbach: Curating Media Art offline and online\" width=\"730\" height=\"411\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nSgll2zUBBA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6216\" src=\"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Sabine-Himmelsbach_Foto-Christian-Knoerr.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Sabine-Himmelsbach_Foto-Christian-Knoerr.jpg 331w, https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Sabine-Himmelsbach_Foto-Christian-Knoerr-140x140.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/>Since March 2012, <strong>Sabine Himmelsbach<\/strong> is the director of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hek.ch\/en.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">House of Electronic Arts Basel (HeK)<\/a>.
