On the 2nd of December, Quo Artis presentation ‘Challenges and confluences: Quo Artis, towards eco-literacy through art and science’ was part of the 2-day conference ‘Art and Contemporaneity in Menorca. Third edition of the Conference of Discussions and Debate: Art and Science’, organised by IME (Institut Menorquí d'Estudis) in Maó, Menorca.
Tatiana Kourochkina, director of Quo Artis presented A Sea Change as part of here presentation ‘Challenges and confluences: Quo Artis, towards eco-literacy through art and science’.
This conference responded to the growing interest of the Institut Menorquí d’Estudis (ME) to promote cross-disciplinary relationships between various disciplines and stimulate the transfer of knowledge. In the last decades, we have seen how the relationships between art, science and technology recovered the lost links. Today, science and technology are bringing about new models of production and representation in art that shake its foundations. The artist, acting as a researcher, becomes interdisciplinary and dissolves into other fields of knowledge. Science, on the other hand, is making its own the exploratory and methodological capacities of artistic activity, and has found in art a facilitator of its communicability.
