Overview and quickfacts

Altermodern is a term coined by British curator Nicolas Bourriaud to describe a shift in cultural production that takes place after postmodernism. Bourriaud believes that altermodernity is characterized by a return to the modernist values of autonomy and sincerity, while also incorporating the lessons learned from postmodernism. This results in a hybrid art form that is both new and old, global and local, traditional and experimental.

The art style is also known as: Different, new, modern

Detailed Description

Altermodernism is a term coined by British curator Nicolas Bourriaud to describe a mode of cultural production and exchange characterized by its focus on contemporary art practices that engage with the “altermodern” condition. This condition is marked by a questioning of the modernist legacy and its attendant narratives of progress and universalization, as well as a rejection of the postmodernist embrace of irony and pastiche. In its place, altermodernism proposes a renewed engagement with the real and the material, a commitment to social and political engagement, and a willingness to experiment with form and content. Altermodernism has its roots in the work of a number of late-20th-century artists and thinkers who sought to challenge the received wisdom of the modernist project. These include the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben, the French sociologist Bruno Latour, and the British artist and writer Grayson Perry. Altermodernism has been taken up by a number of artists working in a variety of media. These include the British artist Liam Gillick, who has created a number of installations that engage with the altermodern condition; the French artist Philippe Parreno, who has explored the potential of the altermodern in a number of film and video works; and the American artist Cory Arcangel, who is known for his work with found objects and appropriated images. Altermodernism has also been the subject of a number of exhibitions, most notably “Altermodern”, a 2009 show curated by Bourriaud at the Tate Modern in London. This exhibition brought together a number of international artists working in a variety of media, and sought to explore the altermodern condition through their work. Famous altermodern artists include Liam Gillick, Philippe Parreno, and Cory Arcangel.

The positive Future

What an AI system (OpenAI – textdavinci002) tells us about a positive future of humans and AI:

So what does the future hold for humans and machines? It is likely that both humans and machines will continue to play important roles in the future. Machines will become increasingly capable and will be used for tasks that are too difficult or time-consuming for humans. Humans, on the other hand, will continue to provide the important advantages of empathy, common sense, adaptation, and creativity. As a result, the future looks bright for both humans and machines.

The Negative Futrue

What an AI system (OpenAI – textdavinci002) tells us about a negative future of humans and AI:

It’s possible that we’ll find a way to coexist with intelligent machines. We might, for example, use them to do the boring and dangerous jobs that we don’t want to do. We could also use them to augment our own intelligence, making us smarter and more productive. But it’s also possible that AI will eventually outcompete us, leading to our extinction. After all, if intelligent machines can do everything we can do, but better, then why would anyone want to keep us around? Only time will tell what the future of human-AI relations will be. But one thing is certain: the rise of artificial intelligence presents a grave threat to the future of humanity.
