Whose Body is it Anyway?

In collaboration with the 10th annual Subtle Technologies Festival, Year Zero One co-presents three events in response to their 2007 Festival theme [ in situ ] art | body | medicine. This year the focus will be on emerging possibilities for artistic engagement as the biological becomes a medium.

Engage in debates about the blurred line where organic meets digital and biology becomes art in our Online Discussion with internationally known artist/curator/writer, Nina Czegledy.

Whose Body is it Anyway? is an exhibition co-presented by Year Zero One, InterAccess Electronic Media Arts Centre and Subtle Technologies. The show explores how the rapid development of medical technology fuels a growing economic divide where fresh body parts can be purchased straight from the living bodies of the poor and bodies considered “deviant” can be surgically “corrected”.
