Zusammenfassung
Posthumanism in Art and Science is an anthology of indispensable statements and artworks featuring groundbreaking theorists as well as innovative, influential artists and curators. Their provocative and compelling works speak to the ongoing conceptual and political challenge of posthuman theories in a time of cultural and environmental crises. Wide-ranging, interdisciplinary and representative of the current international cultural debates about posthumanism, this provocative volume will inspire students, artists, activists, and anyone who is invested in debunking anthropocentrism.
