Natalia Matewecki

Natalia Matewecki’s research project “Typology and typologies of Bioart” is an analysis of SymbioticA projects, an interaction with the scientists and artists, and the study of the bibliographical material (scientific and press articles, essays, papers, catalogues).

By studying and analysing all of these elements she will systematise the characteristics of Bioart as a genre (a typology), and observe any possible sub-genres (typologies) arising, for example, transgenic art.

“Typology and typologies of Bioart” is related to her thesis work undertaken in the Master of Aesthetic and Theory of Art, Facultad de Bellas Artes, Universidad Nacional de La Plata (Argentina), in which Matewecki will attempt to specify the characteristics of Bioart from the discussions generated in different fields by artists, scientists, critics and curators, amongst others.
