Experiências críticas em arte e tecnologia : Zaven Paré e Jorge Crowe

Abstract

The research addresses contemporary artistic processes that articulate art and technology, which are able to enhance the production of knowledge in a critical and creative perspective. Therefore, part of the analysis of proposals/actions developed by the artists Zaven Paré and Jorge Crowe, are mainly pointing out issues related to collaborative work such as precariousness/demystification of media performance and the use of free technologies. The approach emphasizes terms and concepts related to digital culture, free culture, the artist hacking and research in art and technology as a critical experience; taking into consideration reference authors Pierre Levy, Manuel Castells, Lawrence Lessig, Arlindo Machado, Flusser and others. The study points to a better understanding of artistic productions that run through interdisciplinary practice, the appropriation of research models and the formation of collaborative networks.
