Digital Art Season at National Art Library: Digital Art, Agency, and Algorithms photo
When artworks exist within digital systems, where does their agency reside? From art worlds to algorithmic feeds, this talk asks how artworks are shaped by the systems that make, circulate, and perceive them.

Join Laura Herman (Curator, Digital Art) as she discusses art in the digital age based on selected books from the National Art Library. 

Part of the V&A’s Digital Art Season: On Agency which runs until 3 December 2026, exploring the fluid boundaries between human and machine agency.
