ecoLogicStudio & Nathalie Blanc: The post-human city
How can today’s waste and pollution become a solution to feed and sustain humanity? In what ways can organic and artificial intelligence influence post-anthropocentric architecture? And how can we define the new aesthetics of a post-human world? Claudia Pasquero, architect and co-founder of ecoLogicStudio, works on the transformation of our lifestyles and urban landscapes through solutions inspired by non-human elements, such as slime mould, micro-algae, and artificial intelligence. This conversation with Nathalie Blanc, geographer, artist, director of research at the CNRS and director of the Earth Politics Center, will explore their work in favour of...

Richard Sennett & Irene Kopelman: Cooperating with the living
“We cooperate to accomplish what we cannot do alone,” writes Richard Sennett, sociologist, author and professor at MIT, Columbia University and the LSE. This statement describes equally well the approach of the Argentinian artist Irene Kopelman, who is currently the subject of an exhibition at MAMAC (Nice), whose artistic practice is underpinned by a long-term engagement with scientists and their subjects, ranging from forests to bacteria. More generally, cooperation, a subject in which Richard Sennett is a specialist, has long played a crucial role in the survival of our species. However, the consequences of the Anthropocene on our planetary reso...

Ernesto Neto & Michael Marder: Vegetal Soul
Brazilian artist Ernesto Neto’s installations immerse the viewer in colours, fragrances and sounds, redefining the boundaries between the artwork and the audience and simultaneously serving as models for redefining social environments. The unconventional choice of materials, the simultaneity of internal and external structures, the contrast between the organic and the mechanical, and the qualities of sensuality and tactility, are all deeply inherent to the artist’s practice. Neto was featured in the 57th Venice Biennial ‘Viva Arte Viva’ (2017). He is represented by Tanya Bonakdar Gallery, Galerie Max Hetzler, galería Elba Benitez, Fortes D’Aloia & Gabriel and Goodman Gallery.

Rossella Biscotti & Valérie Cabanes: Art + ecocide
Italian artist Rossella Biscotti uses montage as a gesture to reveal individual narratives and their relation to society. In her cross-media practice, cutting across filmmaking, performance and sculpture, she explores and reconstructs social and political moments from recent times through the subjectivity and experiences of individuals, against the backdrop of a larger institutional system. Her most recent and long-term project The Journey, started in 2016, connects scientific research, oceanography and environmental data using a marble block from the Carrara quarry in Italy, which is dropped into the Mediterranean sea. Biscotti has taken part in major international exhibitions, including the 55th...

Isa Melsheimer & Tim Ingold: Corresponding with the natural world
Isa Melsheimer is a German artist whose artwork revolves around architectural and urban topics. One focus is modernist and postmodernist architecture and their underlying conceptions of human beings and nature, built space, and society. She finds inspiration for her work in literature, film, popular culture, and academic texts, including the American science theorist and feminist Donna J. Haraway, who foresees the need for new relationships and interferences between humans, machines, animals, and plants for life on the destroyed earth in the Chthulucene era. In 2022, the MAMAC, Nice devoted a solo exhibition to her practice, entitled “Compost”. Based in Berlin, she...

Claudia Comte & Tom Battin: Enriching the ocean floor
Known for her impressive site-specific installations that allow the public to encounter art through nature, the Swiss artist Claudia Comte’s minimalist work mixes geometric painting and abstract sculpture. However, although seductive to the eye, her works question above all the memory of materials and their ecosystem. Thus, the wood she uses reminds us of the climatic evolution of the planet, making us aware of the modification of materials intrinsically linked to their ecosystem. Claudia Comte is represented by König Galerie and Gladstone Gallery. Tom Battin has a doctorate in ecology and is a professor of env...
