Art
Laboratory Berlin is pleased to present a collection of documentary
films about artworks recently created using the latest twenty-first
century technologies: artificial life, robotics, bio and genetic
engineering. The screening has been organized by the curator and
artist Dmitry Bulatov in conjunction with the National Centre for
Contemporary Arts (Kaliningrad branch, Russia).
The
films document artworks whose medium is living or lifelike matter,
and the properties of living organisms and technologically reproduced
artefacts are combined to produce the method. Art created under
these new conditions of post-biology - that is, under conditions
of artificially generated life - cannot avoid making this artificiality
its explicit theme. We are thus again confronted with the question
of the relationship between art and life in a completely new context
defined by biological and abiological creations, works, and beings.
