September 5: 
"DOES THE WEST STILL EXIST?" 
Presentations by and debate with Sarat Maharaj and
Machiko Kusahara 
Hollywood, computer games, net and media art,
micromovies, new devices
 images are undergoing a new
internationalization never known before, and are
increasingly being charged as a vehicle of ideologies
and worldview. Seemingly bygone clashes between image
opponents and image believers are reanimated in
contemporary media to include all areas of art,
science, politics and economy - now on a global scale.
Can we still speak of images of the west today? Do we
witness the arousal of a global visual language
enriched universally by the various cultures, or are
we at the brink of an ‘image war’, representing
extremes between the old and new economic powers and
their visual culture? 

September 6: 
“PYGMALION TENDENCIES: Bioart and its Precursors” 
Presentations by and debate with Gunalan Nadajaran and
Jens Hauser 
Art and the natural sciences are forming a new
interconnection that is closer than in past centuries.
Recent developments in art such as Bioart, Techno-art,
Genetic or Transgenic Art bring artists into the
scientific laboratories and carry their visions to the
general public. Not only do artists work
cross-pollinated, they also create new creatures,
frequently revealing spectacular spaces of reflection
on new possibilities. International experts discuss
these tensions oscillating between body and nature on
one hand and artificial life and illusion on the other
- none the least, in their historical contexts.
