28.03.–03.05.2025 // As a collaboration with nexus_art + science, ‘Intangible’ exhibition is dedicated to the tension between art and science beyond common models of knowledge. The exhibition consisted of a dynamic dialogue between science, philosophy, and art, and invited visitors to think beyond conventional narratives and models of knowledge. The focus was on the question of how life organises itself, and the agency of organisms that springs from such living organisation – a new, alternative paradigm that challenges the mechanistic world view of modern science. As the exhibition unfolds through a dynamic dialogue, a book project is emerging from this interdisciplinary debate. Beyond the Age of Machines reflects on and documents these processes. It sheds light on the difference between living beings and artificial systems. It questions the limits of the mechanistic view of the world, and explores how organisms organise themselves and act on their own behalf – an agency that machines fundamentally lack.
