FAQ About The Impact of New Media on Traditional Art Forms

How does digital art challenge traditional concepts of originality and authenticity in art?

Digital art challenges traditional concepts of originality and authenticity because of its inherently reproducible nature.

This shift questions the value and uniqueness traditionally associated with original artworks, leading to new discussions in art theory and practice about what constitutes an original piece.
