Description
It is with a particular acuity that the arts using technological media reflect the ongoing transformations in our societies. Transformations provoked by the invasion of technoscience. New digital devices (computer-generated images, interactivity, virtual reality) promise to radically reshape our relationship to the image, the body, the world. Moving beyond the fascination phase, a stage of creative critique and comparative aesthetic analysis now seems essential. Offering a synthetic vision of the moving image as a visual art, Mutations de l image establishes transversal and horizontal connections between technological media and historical periods, lightweight and sophisticated technologies, formal and corporeal research, poetic and socio-critical approaches, high culture and counterculture—since the force of art emerges from every territory.
