Home Page – Why you should care about early net art from Hungary
Mark Fridvalszki & Anna Tudos
25 April – 21 May 2023
The net art work ‘Home Page’ operates on similar principles as early net
art works, expropriates their characteristics, and proposes a time travel
to their origins through its maze of information. Based on the small but
significant early net art collection of C3 Foundation (Budapest, Hungary),
the work aims to preserve the essence, the element of freedom in early
net art, and the power of graphic design in a utopian moment, at the dawn
of the Internet. The site also operates as an alternative archive remixing
artworks, visual associations, and theoretical text with interview excerpts.
Juxtaposing existing net-based artworks with writings by Ferenc Kömlődi
(Cathedral of Light, 1999) and organising them into a thematic grid,
the website offers a place for contemplation and a deeper understanding of
the Zeitgeist and logic of these artworks.
