Lecture by Irina Kulik “Dreams for implantation”

This year marks one hundred years since the poet André Breton published the First Manifesto of Surrealism and launched one of the most influential and controversial movements of modernism. Its participants were rebels who called for the use of surrealism in the service of the revolution - and new conservatives converted to the avant-garde art of figurative painting, intellectuals inspired by the ideas of Freud and exploring the workings of the unconscious - and authors sensitive to the charm of popular culture and masterfully able to collaborate with it. And although the main achievements of the surrealists remained at the beginning of the last century, today the imagery and practice of surrealism are returning again - this time in art created with the help of machine unconscious AI.

 

Speaker:
Irina Kulik, art historian, art critic
