Después de la glorificación de la máquina”: utopías críticas en las artes tecnológicas contemporáneas

Abstract

This paper analyses certain new media art poetics and aesthetics that embrace critical utopias, since they question the modern conception of utopia, which has often tended to glorify science and technology. Throughout the examination of different Argentine curatorships from the last years, the article studies the imaginaries of modernization that have shaped the relations between art, science and technology, as well as its connections with the notions of future, progress and novelty.
