Projectables from the heroic period plus a reconstruction of a
never completed FILE EXTINGUISHER
Artnetweb said "without Vuk Ćosić we would have less fun on the
Net". An apt summary of the influence Vuk Ćosić has in internet art.
A trailblazer whose innovative and challenging work resounds
throughout the world of the web. A lecturer, author and enthusiast
Čosić's constantly changing oeuvre shows a mix of philosophical and
conceptual web-related issues on one hand and a feel for contemporary
urban and underground aesthetics on the other.
The ICA's Digital Studio features the first solo show in the UK of
one of net arts pioneers including a specially created new piece.
