The next edition of The Art Museum in the Digital Age will be held virtually between 19–23, January 2026
Now in its eighth edition, the international online conference explores the complex interrelations between truth, fake and falsified information, and knowledge authority in the context of digital transformation processes. In light of increasing disinformation, AI-generated content, and algorithmic bias, museums face the challenge of rethinking their role as trusted spaces for knowledge dissemination. At the same time, digital technologies open up new possibilities for participation, contextualization, and translation. A keynote lecture, four thematic online sessions, an on-site workshop, and a panel discussion will shed light on current developments, ethical tensions, and concrete examples from practice. At the heart of the conference is the question of how museums can assume digital responsibility and actively contribute to fostering an open and reflective information culture.
Call for papers: November 2, 2025 (Please see the website)
