Split+Splice

November 22, 2009

A interesting exhibition at the Medical Museion, University of Copenhagen.

Split + Splice, Del + Hel, is about the inter-relations between the culture of biomedicine and the enormous complexities of 21st century living.  The exhibition explores these complexities through the material culture, objects and instruments used by biomedical practitioners in research and in clinical activities.

Much as biomedicine itself, Split + Splice is an innovative hybridisation of complex practices.  It is not exactly science communication; it will not teach you comprehensively about the field of biomedicine.  It is not exactly old-fashioned history of science; it will not show you a triumphalist progression of miraculous discovery.  It is not exactly an art exhibition; it will not leave you with a sense that you have seen inside a solo mind.

2009, many things have been said about the relation between art and science in this decade, the first of the 21st century. There have been glorius moments along with some individual iniatives which focused in generating hybrid spaces and encounters. After all art and science grew as as new media which experience not yet possible relationships between areas of exploration of very different character but also a new way of approaching production, research and exhibition modes. This blog wants to show some of the latest events that emerge after a decade of showing and viewing, as well as talking, about common spaces.
