Truth and Lies in the Post-Medium Condition

In this fourth session of the RAW Académie, Corpus Callosum, I wish to open up ideas around the concept of the medium and processes of mediation. I will seek to make links between how conceptions of the medium operate in contemporary art, (medium specificity / dematerialisation of the object / the breakdown of the medium / the post-medium) in relation to broader concepts and processes of mediation from philosophical or spiritual contexts. 

 

About Zen Marie

Zen Marie is an artist who works in a variety of media. Core to his practice is a concern with how meaning is formed through different media, spaces and processes. While working from a position that begins with photography and filmmaking he also works in performance, sculpture, graphic processes and writing. His areas of focus have included international sport, identity, nationalism, and public infrastructure. The binding link between these diverse areas has always been the relationship between power and its subversion.

Marie currently lives and works in Johannesburg, South Africa, where he is a Lecturer in Fine Art at the WITS School of Art. He is also a PhD candidate at WITS, with a focus on areas of art and theory in relation to what he calls situated aesthetic practice.
