The Young Family (Videomax)

Australian citizen and resident artist Patricia Piccinini (Freetown-Sierra Leone, 1965) makes drawings, sculptures, photographs and videos that examine the border between the artificial and the natural. Attract and repel, they are unknown creatures, bodies that appear in the flesh, but presented as a mutation, a hybrid or a distortion of what we recognize as normal. In a world determined to humanize technology and homogenizing the human body to eliminate any uncomfortable difference, the works challenge the viewer with a look that is far from the ideal of perfection. The Carrier (Carrier), a work in glass-reinforced plastic, silicone, human hair and fabric has an old unconventionally transported by a being with human hominid features and look. It combines his fascination with medical science and biotechnology with the fears and concerns of modern society such as the appearance, aging and disease-related nature but unnaturally treated. The application of animal characteristics, the absence of face, atrophied limbs and flabby muscles are a personification of disgust generated malformation and physical decline. Strange scenes refer to the universal instinct to apply our own emotions species of animals and things. Piccinini wonders with that series of surrealist works between science fiction and how technology is changing our understanding of what it means to be human and also changes our relationships with others.To see the video on Jose Garcia Cordero: https://youtu.be/Cb12HmBrYW4To see the video on Urban Art: https://youtu.be/z8bRds5Pqw

6. Leather Landscape The Leather Landscape exhibited in �We Are Family� at the Venice Biennale involved a colony of humanoid, transgenic African meerkat-like beings. �What arrests me in this more than natural colony,� Haraway continues, �is not the pink-suited blond human toddler face-to-face with a fabulated playmate living on soft white leather in the museum space. Rather, I am struck by the four-breasted female sitting peaceably on the next level up of the pyramidal habitat, with her milk-lust babies nestled between her legs ready to attach to her alluring array of ventral teats� (Haraway 2014: 249-250).

On close inspection alarming signs of premature aging can be seen. The source for this idea was Dolly the sheep. Dolly was a ewe (5 July, 1 996 � 1 4 February, 2 003) famous for being the first mammal to be cloned from a cell. Dolly�s death at the premature age of six years prompted debate about the biological and ethical consequences of cloning.

22. Wave UFO (Kunstkanaal Kunstbus) De Japanse kunstenares Mariko Mori werd midden jaren negentig internationaal bekend met haar opvallende multimediawerk van ge�nsceneerde foto's, video's en installaties. In al haar werk staat de tegenstelling tussen fantasie en werkelijkheid centraal. Ook combineert zij motieven uit de Japanse en westerse kunstgeschiedenis met hedendaagse invloeden uit de mode, designwereld, muziek, manga en science fiction. Mariko Mori schept artifici�le landschappen, waarin ze zelf vaak in verschillende gedaanten optreedt.
23. Wave UFO (uililopes) aliens - UFO====Pela primeira vez no Brasil, uma mostra ampla e abrangente da artista japonesa contempor�nea Mariko Mori, que utiliza o design e a arte de vanguarda para compor elementos de engenharia de ponta, interativos e de forte impacto f�sico e visual. A exposi��o apresenta dez trabalhos de alta complexidade tecnol�gica, que ocupar�o todos os espa�os expositivos do CCBB Bras�lia. Entre os trabalhos, todos provenientes de acervos da Europa, Estados Unidos e Jap�o, est�o: Wave Ufo, um objeto h�brido de grande escala, m�quina e escultura ao mesmo tempo, que funde, em tempo real, computa��o gr�fica, ondas cerebrais, som e uma engenharia arquitet�nica para criar uma experi�ncia interativa din�mica; Oneness, que apresenta um c�rculo de seis figuras confeccionadas em technogel (material novo, que fica entre o s�lido e o l�quido), medindo 1,35 m, que interagem ao toque do visitante.; e Transcircle, um anel de nove pedras de vidro coloridas e brilhantes, controlado interativamente, numa fant�stica reinterpreta��o dos c�rculos de mon�litos pr�-hist�ricos.As obras Wave UFO e Onenness permitem, al�m da contempla��o, a experimenta��o do p�blico. Por�m, considerando as caracter�sticas t�cnicas das referidas obras, essa integra��o � limitada e ser� controlada mediante retirada de senhas na bilheteria.fonte: http://www.bb.com.br/portalbb/page511...=====Mariko Mori (? ???, Mori Mariko, b. 1967 in Tokyo, Japan) is a Japanese video and photographic artist. While studying at Bunka Fashion College, she worked as a fashion model in the late 1980s. This strongly influenced her early works, such as Play with Me, in which she takes control of her role in the image, becoming an exotic, alien creature in everyday scenes. In 1989, she moved to London to study at the Chelsea College of Art and Design.The juxtaposition of Eastern mythology with Western culture is a common theme in Mori's works, often through layering photography and digital imaging, such as in her 1995 installation Birth of a Star. Later works, such as Nirvana show her as a goddess, transcending her early roles via technology and image, and abandoning realistic urban scenes for more alien landscapes.Play With Me (1994): Standing outside a Tokyo toy store, Mori dressed herself as a sexy cyborg�with light blue hair in long ponytails, metallic blue plastic in a hard-shell articulation of erotic body parts, silver plastic gloves, and a dress. Mori was trying to show that she connects to the robotic toys inside the store, but also to show her available unemotional sexuality.Subway (1994): Mori stood in a Tokyo subway car dressed as if she just landed from outer space. She was dressed in a silver metallic costume with a headset, microphone, and push-buttons on her forearm. This transformation�along with Play With Me�was to explore different constructed identities.Empty Dream (1995): Mori manipulates a photo of a real public swimming place as she inserts herself in a blue plastic mermaid costume in several locations within the scene. This image refers to, among other things, the rising of technology and philosophy around the creation of man through biotechnology.Oneness (2002): Oneness presents the dimensions of spirituality, photografy and fashion into a deep look on the originality of the artist's skill hence the usage of technology's brand new trends. The outlook designs of Oneness gathers the capacity nevertheless the hability to use advanced technology knowledge converted to some sort of mystic and UFO's.Including in Oneness you can find some sub-works such as the Wave-UFO, a 6.000 kg dome where the visitor, once inside it, can see projected paintings reworked with computer graphics and then transformed into photographs in the interior dome of the Wave UFO.ft: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariko_Mori
