ABOUT IA CURRENTThe InterAccess Current (IA Current) program supports the professional development of emerging curators and artists interested in new media and electronic practices. Each year, InterAccess selects an emerging curator, who works closely with InterAccess staff to conceptualize and execute an exhibition of works by emerging artists. “Current” refers to the now, of course, but it is also an energetic charge that causes light, heat and all manner of electronic life; an apt metaphor for emergent creative practices within the ever-expanding field of new media.Image: Ferrodolia* MFS.23 (Magnetic Field Studies 2023) by Callum Schuster from IA Current 2023 exhibition curated by Gladys Lou.
