Description
Summary:The artists Bryndis Snæbjörnsdóttir and Mark Wilson were interviewed by Antennae Editor in Chief, Giovanni Aloi, about ‘Nanoq: flat out and bluesome’, relationships between animals and humans, taxidermy and Damien Hirst. (Originally published in Antennae: the journal of nature in visual culture (2008), volume 6, pp.28-34.) Book abstract: Since 2007, Antennae: The Journal of Nature in Visual Culture has been the international reference point of the non-human turn in the visual arts. This volume gathers the richest interviews and the most thought-provoking essays featured over its forty installments thus far published - it captures the first ten years of a truly historic moment in contemporary art and philosophical thinking. The non-human turn, which has so pronouncedly characterized the cultural discourses of the new millennium, is most definitely going to shape the course of our troubled future with the planet. Featuring the voices and work of some of the most influential artists and scholars involved in the subject of the non-human and visual cultures, this collection is an unorthodox reference point, a verbatim account of the main ideas and movements, and an archive of original documents indispensable to tracing the intersections and origins of anthropogenic discourses.
