Imagination, Archive and Programming the Life_ version 2.0
Original language description
The visual imagery of DNA has become a cultural icon and important part of our contemporary way of seeing and speaking about the human body. As Suzzane Anker and Dorothy Nelkin point out in their book called The Molecular Gaze. Art in the genetic Age (2004 ), molecular screening or modern imaging technology, has become a source of multiple metaphors and provocative visual images. In our cultural discourse, the gene has become a powerful and pervasive icon ? an almost magical force. There are many artists an d visual performers who use live cells, tissue, or genes to create, perform and re - program living things, and work with the specific visual imagination of the human body. They are part of a broader current of artists who are intrigued by DNA, genetics, and working with live tissues. BioArt and SciArt are not only imagination of the human body at the aesthetical level, but through their works artists stimulate the audience to face some existential questions.
