This study day accompanies the opening of the exhibition Back / Forward #2.
Digital technology has brought about major change, and our relationship with the tools we use in our work and daily lives has been shaped by this technical and social shift. Artists have an important role to play in this transformation, as they too have seen their work modified by these digital tools, changing their relationship to technique and medium.
This study day proposed by La Condition Publique and Espace Croisé invites us to reflect on the human-machine relationship within the framework of contemporary artistic creations. The aim is to study the critical and aesthetic potential of the machine used within works of art.
What is the relationship to language between the creator and the program, between the public and the work? What is the limit of understanding of these machines?
