The History of GIF Art

Paddy Johnson’s look at GIF art starts with its inception in 1998 and follows the medium through a digital and technological revolution, tracing its role in social media and society. “It’s a medium that operates within traditional exhibition spaces and also just on the Internet, where anyone with a mobile device or computer can access art,” Stell points out. “It’s an interesting look at art taken out of its traditional surroundings.”
