Greetings INCCA members,
INCCA is pleased to start this newsletter with an invite to the next upcoming INCCA Talk on 2nd April 2026 9am BST, where doctoral student Manon Abt will moderate a talk on the preservation of Toshio Iwai’s Time Stratum series. Live captions will be available.
The restoration of Toshio Iwai’s Time Stratum series brings into focus the challenges of exhibiting and potentially acquiring early computer-based art. Created between 1985 and 1990, these video- and computer-based installations are the subject of an artist-driven restoration project initiated in 2023. The talk brings together the Japanese team involved in the project, including Toshio Iwai, curator Hiroko Kimura-Myokam, conservator Tabei Katsuhiko, and web designer Shunya Hagiwara. The discussion will present the Time Stratum series as a case study to examine the strategies developed in response to exhibition requirements and institutional acquisition frameworks. Read more about the talk and the speakers here. And please sign up for free here.
In other news, we will be announcing another INCCA talk in March where our very own Steering Committee member Rachel Rivenc will discuss her latest book. Stay tuned for the announcement soon!
Best wishes,
The INCCA Steering Committee
