POSTNATURE. THE FUTURE IS PRESENT
Urgency, Desire, Fear, Utopia, Collapse, Immortality… What will we face in the future?
In a world—our world—where the concept of nature is now obsolete, provisional concepts such as post-nature have allowed us to raise many questions about the meaning of these transformations, especially the demand for answers and ideas. Art has not come late to this revolution.
Why refer to this reality in terms of “post-nature”? What role does the human being play in shaping a post-natural age? Is it a recent reality or an old reality with a new name? What are the connotations of a term such as this today? What alarms does it set off? What imaginative and utopian practices does it generate?
