This anthology considers art at the center of network theory, from the 1960s to the present.<\/p>\n<p>Artists have used the \u201cspace of flows\u201d as a basis for creating utopian scenarios, absurd yet functional propositions or holistic planetary visions. Others have explored the economies of reciprocity and the ethics of generosity, in works that address changed conditions of codependence and new sites of social negotiation. The \u201cinfra-power\u201d of the network has been a departure point for self-organized counterculture and the creation of new types of agency. And a \u201cpoetics of connectivity\u201d runs through a diverse range of work that addresses the social and material complexity of networks through physical structures and ambient installation, the mapping of the Internet, or the development of robots and software that take on the functions of artist or curator.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Artists surveyed include<\/strong>Joseph Beuys, Ursula Biemann, Heath Bunting, Critical Art Ensemble, Fernand Deligny, Peter Fend, Gego, Jobim Jochimsen, Koncern, Christine Kozlov, Pia Lindman, Mark Lombardi, Diana McCarty, Marta Minuj\u00edn, Aleksandra Mir, Tanja Ostojic, Ola Pehrson, Walid Raad, Art\u00fcras Raila, Hito Steyerl, Tomaso Tozzi, Suzanne Treister, Ultra Red, Wolf Vostell, Stephen Willats<\/p>\n<p>**Writers include **Jane Bennett, Hakim Bey, Luc Boltanski, Manuel Castells, \u00c8ve Chiapello, Guy Debord, Umberto Eco, Okwui Enwezor, Michael Hardt, Bruno Latour, Marshall McLuhan, Marcel Mauss, Reza Negarestani, Antonio Negri, Sadie Plant, Lane Relyea, Craig Saper, Saskia Sassen, Pit Schultz, Steven Shaviro, Tiziana Terranova, Paolo Virno<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>dobooks: Networks (Whitechapel: Documents of Contemporary Art) The dawn of the electronic media age in the 1960s began a cultural shift from the modernist grid and its determination of projection and representation to the fluid structures and circuits of the network, presenting art with new challenges and possibilities.
