How new media art informed by feminism yields important and original insights about interacting with technologies
In A Capsule Aesthetic, Kate Mondloch examines how new media installation art intervenes in the fields of technoscience and new materialism, showing how three diverse artists—Pipilotti Rist, Patricia Piccinini, and Mariko Mori—contribute to the urgent conversation about everyday technology and the ways it constructs our bodies.
A Capsule Aesthetic establishes the unique insights that feminist theory offers to new media art and new materialisms, offering a fuller picture of human–nonhuman relations. In-depth readings of works by Rist, Piccinini, and Mori explore such questions as the role of the contemporary art museum in our experience of media art, how the human is conceived of by biotechnologies, and how installation art can complicate and enrich contemporary science’s understanding of the brain. With vivid, firsthand descriptions of the artworks, Mondloch takes the reader inside immersive installation pieces, showing how they allow us to inhabit challenging theoretical concepts and nonanthropomorphic perspectives.
Striving to think beyond the anthropocentric and fully consider the material world, A Capsule Aesthetic brings new approaches to questions surrounding our technology-saturated culture and its proliferation of human-to-nonhuman interfaces. 受到女权主义影响的新媒体艺术是如何产生与技术相互作用的重要而独到的见解的,kate mondloch 探讨了新媒体装置艺术如何介入技术科学和新唯物主义领域,展示了三位不同的艺术家ー pipipilotti,patricia piccinini 和 mariko mori ー如何促成了关于日常技术及其构造我们身体的方式的紧迫对话。女权主义理论为新媒体艺术和新的物质主义提供了独特的见解,一个简单的美学概念为人类与非人类关系提供了更全面的画面。深入阅读 rist,piccinini 和 mori 的作品,探索当代艺术博物馆在我们媒体艺术体验中的作用,生物技术如何构想人类,装置艺术如何使当代科学对大脑的理解复杂化和丰富化。通过对艺术作品生动的第一手描述,蒙德洛克带领读者进入沉浸式装置作品,展示它们如何让我们栖息在富有挑战性的理论概念和非拟人化的视角中。努力超越以人类为中心的思维方式,充分考虑物质世界,一个小小的美学带来了新的方法来解决围绕我们的技术饱和的文化及其人与人之间的界面的扩散的问题。 基本信息 出版社 : Univ Of Minnesota Press; 第 1st 版 (2018年1月23日) 语言 : 英语 精装 : 168页 ISBN-10 : 1517900484 ISBN-13 : 978-1517900489 商品重量 : 340 g 尺寸 : 13.97 x 2.54 x 21.59 cm
