GAME ARTWORLDS: CONTEMPORARY PRACTITIONERS 

GameScenes is conducting a series of interviews with artists, critics, curators, and gallery owners operating in the field of Game Art, as part of an ongoing investigation of the social history of this artworld. Our goal is to document and examine both the origins and evolution of a phenomenon that changed the way game-based art is being created, experienced, and discussed today.

All interviews are in English, unless otherwise indicated.
