Arequipa 2020

In Artificial Hells, Claire Bishop (United Kingdom) followed the trail of artistic practices that discomfort, interrupt and reconfigure what we understand by seeing. Now, in Disordered Attention, in the context of an economy characterised by programmed distraction, she once again asks what it means to look. Her analysis dismantles the idea of pure contemplation and highlights the power of performance, dance and political interventions to mould a new type of perception: emotional, hybrid and shared. In conversation with Fernando Zvietcovich and Heiner Valdivia.
