Öffnungszeiten: Fr-So, 14-18 Uhr u. n.
Vereinbarung
In den Arbeiten von Susanna Hertrich wird der
menschliche sensorische Apparat durch computergesteuerte Prothesen erweitert.
Die Ergebnisse können als künstlerische Hypothese sowie technologisches
Experiment verstanden werden. Die Werke reflektieren unsere gegenwärtigen
Lebenswelten und befragen soziale, politische sowie physische Konsequenzen der
neuesten Technologie auf kritische Weise.
Neben Hertrichs Arbeiten wird Art Laboratory Berlin auch einen Film über Neil Harbisson und die Cyborg Foundation zeigen.

Susanna
Hertrich //
PROSTHESES. Transhuman Life Forms Opening hours: Fri-Sun, 2-6PM and by appointment
The
exhibition explores the phenomenon of the prosthesis as bodily extension in the
21st century. Exploring new technologies and recent developments in neuroscience
and biology, Susanna Hertrich proposes new transhuman sensory extensions of what
may eventually become 'human 2.0'. The exhibited works are part of her long-term
artistic research project Bodies &
Technology.
In Susanna Hertrich’s work a narration is constructed in which the human sensory apparatus is extended through computer controlled prostheses. The results can be understood as crossing the boundaries between artistic hypothesis and technological experimentation. The artworks reflect our current living environments, as well as critically question the social, political and physical consequences of the new technologies utilised in their making.
Next to Hertrich's works Art Laboratory Berlin will showcase a film on Neil Harbisson and the Cyborg Foundation.
