Artist Statement:

Simulation and network technologies present new challenges to the field of museology. Art collections can now be digitized and distributed through telecommunication and computer networks. Moreover, new artistic experiments question the validity and necessity of the institutional sanctions. ISEA 95 Montreal will host a high­speed televirtual telecommunication linking two exhibition sites. The Tunnel under the Atlantic will link Montreal and Paris, allowing both publics to meet and interact in a virtual environment.
