Abstract

"Essays, conversations, selected texts, and a rich collection of thought-provoking artworks celebrate a revolution in bio art. Expertly designed by Omnivore and printed on special papers, including chlorophyll cover and crush citrus and crush cocoa pages...The texts and artworks in Symbionts provoke a necessary conversation about our species and its relation to the planet. Are we merely "mammalian weeds," as evolutionary biologist Lynn Margulis put it? Or are we partners in producing and maintaining the biosphere, as she also suggested? Symbionts reflects on a recent revolution in bio art that departs from the late-1990s code-oriented experiments to embrace entanglement and symbiosis ("with-living"). Combining documentation of contemporary artworks with texts by leading thinkers, Symbionts, which accompanies an exhibition at MIT List Visual Arts Center, offers an expansive view of humanity's place on the planet. Color reproductions document works by international artists that respond to the revelation that planetary microbes construct and maintain our biosphere. A central essay by coeditor Caroline Jones sets their work in the context of larger discussions around symbiosis; additional essays, an edited roundtable discussion, and selected excerpts follow. Contributors explore, among other things, the resilient ecological knowledge of indigenous scholars and artists, and "biofiction," a term coined by Jones to describe the work of such theoretical biologists as Jacob von Uexküll as well as the witty parafictions of artist Anicka Yi. A playful glossary puts scientific terms in conversation with cultural ones." --

Abstract

Surrealisme wordt vaak aanzien als een misogyne kunststroming. De werken stellen de vrouw dikwijls voor als 'de ander', on(be)grijpbaar. Toch zijn er een aantal vrouwelijke artiesten binnen die stroming. In dit boek wordt gepoogd aan te tonen hoe die kunstenaressen binnen die vormentaal hun eigen uitdrukking gegeven hebben aan vrouwelijkheid, vrouwelijke subjectiviteit, het vrouwelijk lichaam. Bovendien wordt gesteld dat de antwoorden die toen gegeven werden, ook belangrijk geweest zijn voor de volgende generaties vrouwelijke kunstenaars.

Abstract

Artists and writers reconsider the relationship between the body and electronic technology in the twenty-first century through essays, artworks, and an encyclopedic "Abecedarius of the New Sensorium."The relationship between the body and electronic technology, extensively theorized through the 1980s and 1990s, has reached a new technosensual comfort zone in the early twenty-first century. In Sensorium, contemporary artists and writers explore the implications of the techno-human interface. Ten artists, chosen by an international team of curators, offer their own edgy investigations of embodied technology and the technologized body. These range from Matthieu Briand's experiment in "controlled schizophrenia" and Janet Cardiff and Georges Bures Miller's uneasy psychological soundscapes to Bruce Nauman's uncanny night visions and François Roche's destabilized architecture. The art in Sensorium―which accompanies an exhibition at the MIT List Visual Arts Center―captures the aesthetic attitude of this hybrid moment, when modernist segmentation of the senses is giving way to dramatic multisensory mixes or transpositions. Artwork by each artist appears with an analytical essay by a curator, all of it prefaced by an anchoring essay on "The Mediated Sensorium" by Caroline Jones. In the second half of Sensorium, scholars, scientists, and writers contribute entries to an "Abecedarius of the New Sensorium." These short, playful pieces include Bruno Latour on "Air," Barbara Maria Stafford on "Hedonics," Michel Foucault (from a little-known 1966 radio lecture) on the "Utopian Body," Donna Haraway on "Compoundings," and Neal Stephenson on the "Viral." Sensorium is both forensic and diagnostic, viewing the culture of the technologized body from the inside, by means of contemporary artists' provocations, and from a distance, in essays that situate it historically and intellectually.

Abstract

Tenant à la fois du documentaire et de la fiction, le travail de Joachim Koester (né en 1962 à Copenhague, vit et travaille à Copenhague et New York) revisite et réactive certaines formes du passé tout en s'attachant aux questions de la conscience et de l'altération des sens. L'artiste développe un principe récurrent de montage de l'image pour s'emparer d'une mémoire collective et mener une exploration à caractère aussi bien géographique que mental. Dans cette enquête permanente sur l'épreuve du temps et de l'effacement, Joachim Koester se nourrit de la dualité entre rapport scientifique au réel et expérience sensible. Ainsi, les lieux chargés d'histoire puis désertés, vers lesquels il se tourne, accomplissent souvent, dans leur représentation photographique ou filmique, cette abolition volontaire des frontières entre approche conceptuelle et empirisme.
