Art and the future; a history/prophecy of the collaboration between science, technology, and art
"Art and the Future is the definitive long-awaited analysis of the most radical turn in twentieth-century art--away from the studio toward a full-blooded collaboration with science and technology. The is large in scope and imagination. It painstakingly documents the history of the movement, from the earliest attempts to depict kinetic movement on the canvas--in Cubism and Futurism--to the latest advances in computer art and conceptual art. Davis's approach to the work under discussion is critical as well as celebrative. The book defines and places in critical context dozens of movements, manifestoes, and works--among them: Futurism, Dada, Constructivism, Light-Kinetic sculpture, Surrealism, Pop Art, the Industrial Esthetic, Happenings, Events, Minimal Art, Nouvelle Tendence, Multiple Art, Technological (or "Total") Theater, Environmental Systems Art, Mixed Media, Sky Art, Video Art, Computer Film, Music and Drawing, Electronic Zen, "Direct-Contact" Art, and Conceptual Art."--from book jacket
