Kunst/Literatur
Kunst, Kunsthandwerk, Malerei
In internationalen Fachkreisen wurde Grau durch seine Forschungen zur Medienkunst bekannt. Zu seinen Hauptarbeitsfeldern zählt die Entschlüsselung aktueller Kultur- und Bildtechniken – wie Interaktion, Telepräsenz oder Genetische Kunst – im Kontext ihrer meist unbekannten Vorgeschichte, die oft in vergangene Jahrhunderte reicht. Auf diese Art verbindet er Medienkunst mit ihrer Kulturgeschichte und zeigt auf, welche Phänomene und Entwicklungen tatsächlich neu sind.

technologies for generating images
This is what Grau said himself:
Oliver Grau: Art historians have always included the image media of their time in their considerations, from stamps to cinema films. Today, media art, a fine-spun fabric between science and art, is exploring the aesthetic potential of interactive, processual image worlds. Prominent representatives of virtual image culture are involved in basic scientific research; they combine art and science in the service of today's most complex ***technologies for generating images.***

: Would agree but for the element of 'practice'/genres in 'Kultur-& Bildtechniken' and 'Interaktion' etc.

techniques of / practices in cultural and image production
I'd go for 'technique' in this case. Not so sure about 'technology' here even though spot-on for 'new media' & this artist; because the writer seems to be relating current practice ('Kulturtechnik', 'Interaktion' etc.: genres & procedures) rather than 'only' the machinery which is part of it, to the much wider cultural/historical context. PS I find 'cultural production' ugly but it's the sort of phrase sociologically trained historians et al. go for like piranhas.
