Meet the Artist: ANTHONY ANTONELLIS Art of and About the Internet
Anthony Antonellis’s output is often classified as post-internet art. “Net art and post-internet art deal with authorship, usership, and originality. I view originality as a cumulative process, each person adding their own contribution to a snowball that existed before them and will continue to exist after. As recently as ten years ago the Internet could be viewed as a separate and distinct online space; today we’re approaching a ubiquitous Internet that permeates our everyday objects and activities. Net art, having once been distinct, is now crossing into physical space and colliding with traditional fine art disciplines.”
Antonellis has created netartnet.net, an online-gallery listing and directory with archives of current and past exhibitions. He has been featured in BLOUIN ARTINFO, The Creators Project, and Interview Magazine as well as news outlets Wired, CNET, Discovery, The Atlantic, and BBC World Service. He has a BFA in painting from Savannah College of Art and Design, and an MFA in new artistic strategies from Bauhaus University.
