Ursula Hentschlaeger

Katharina Gsoellpointner / Ursula Hentschlaeger:

In Ursula Hentschläger's second part, the topic is narrowed down to art on the World Wide Web while the view broadens, opening up a wide field between economy, sociology and constructivism.

Gerald Raunig Kulturrisse 1/2000: KulturSchriften, S. 27

In the second part of Paramour (Netz Werk/NetWork) Ursula Hentschläger deals in great detail with the notion of information and its meaning for new media technologies, focusing on the Internet. In this context, there is no doubt about the fact that media art has pre-existed TV, video or computer art. Hentschläger writes about many technical and historical details concerning the Internet and its importance for (media) art, which again and again has to underscore that it is different from the programming departments of the software corporations unless it wants to be considered as a 'mere' innovator (yet) to be (potentially) commercialised or a mere producer, thus losing its position at the predetermined breaking point of society.

Christoph Jacke Telepolis 1999

Hentschläger's style is entertaining and thrilling. (...) Moreover, she has a pleasant way of moving one step away from pure quotes, presenting her own interpretations and ideas.
