June 14, 2001, 7:30 p.m., Vuk Cosic: Net Art
Vuk Cosic uses the Internet as an artistic medium. As an invited artist in the Slovenian Pavilion at this year's Venice Biennale, Cosic is making an exhibition in a space he calls the "Temporary Autonomous Pavilion," presenting net art to an international audience. In Oldenburg, Cosic will show these "classic" and young net art works, creating a context for the sometimes controversial but always interesting net art.
