At the beginning of the summer semester 2023, Constant Dullaart will take up the newly established professorship for Artistic Forms of the Digital. The professorship is AdBK Nuremberg's contribution to the Hightech Agenda Bayern.
With Constant Dullaart's high-profile appointment, AdBK Nuremberg is establishing the undergraduate class for Artistic Forms of the Digital in the Fine Arts degree program as of the summer semester of 2023. As a contribution of the AdBK Nuremberg to the Hightech Agenda Bayern, it reflects an artistic location in the digital space, be it material, immaterial or infrastructural.
Constant Dullaart's often conceptual work manifests itself both on- and offline. In his artistic practice, the Dutch artist reflects on the far-reaching cultural and social implications of communication and image processing technologies and critically engages with the power structures of mega-corporations that dramatically influence our view of the world through the Internet. He explores the limits of manipulation of technology giants such as Google, Facebook, and Instagram, and founded his own tech companies Dulltech™ and common.garden, as well as the online exhibition project distant.gallery.
His recent solo exhibitions include This Unjust Mirror at the Fries Museum, Leeuwarden, and DullLife™, at Upstream Gallery, Amsterdam. In 2021 he showed his work Pleasure for Open Secret at Kunstwerke, Berlin and "Unlock" at transmediale 2022, Berlin.
Constant Dullaart (b. 1979) has taught at Werkplaats Typografie, Arnhem, and the Jan van Eyck academy, Maastricht, as well as at the Gerrit Rietveld academie, Amsterdam, among others.
