What does it mean to make art in a world shaped by invisible networks, opaque technologies, and constantly transforming systems? "La complessità dell’arte, l’arte della complessità" gives voice to artists, writers, and researchers who have explored the contemporary landscape through the lens of complexity. From the network as a new space for artistic action to the challenge of agency in the age of algorithms; from dialogues between art and science to radical pedagogies that rethink bodies and ecologies, the volume weaves together critical perspectives and original viewpoints on some of the most urgent issues of our time.
With contributions by Filippo Andreatta, Federico Bomba, Vuk Cosic, Régine Debatty, Andrea Facchetti, Attila Faravelli, Marialaura Ghidini, Gruppo Ippolita, Rachele Maistrello, Marco Mancuso, Andrea Daniele Signorelli, and Noura Tafeche, alongside essays by the editors Matteo Cremonesi, Claudia D’Alonzo, and Domenico Quaranta, the book offers a rich and plural map for navigating the intricate relationship between artistic practices and the contemporary world.
Born out of a series of conferences and meetings held at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts, the volume brings together ideas and visions that invite readers to see art—and complexity—as open spaces to inhabit, question, and transform.
