Considering the dialogue between painting and the new media, how many times the death of painting has been announced? Nevertheless, this medium remains a powerful interface, preserving the artist’s wishes as an important motivation for the expression. Sometimes, it is even used as a tool to confront contemporary virtual times. The elaboration of a painting obliges the artist to live the real time. Nowadays, many artists from new media are dealing with references coming from painting. Which underlines its importance as a historical link in the art practice. Video and photography are working with direct images from reality. Meanwhile painting creates an indirect image, which is quite the opposite. A painting is something you have to make. When a videomaker or a photographer manipulates the real time of an image, it immediately enters the field of painting. In this case references to painting appear to be inevitable.

In the framework of the overal theme of this publication the visible and the invisible in the arts the subject of the relationship between the artist and the institution, one of the dimensions in the so-called “system”, is examined. A system of visible and invisible lines is pre-supposed which determine, but are also determined by, the above-mentioned relationship. And these structures, of course, are part of a broader net of systems and sub-systems that interact continuously, becoming increasingly interdependent, and globalised.
