"The art between technology and rebellion" is the brand new book by the outstanding Argentine artist Luis Felipe Noé, which will be presented online on Thursday 17 of September, starting at 19 hours.

The presentation will be given live from the Cultural Center of Cooperation, together with Juan Pablo Pérez - coordinator of the Visual Arts area of ​​the traditional Buenos Aires venue located on Corrientes Avenue- in the framework of the cycle "Conversations – Thinking our America ".

Made by Editorial Argonauta, the brand new material of the renowned artist of 87 years reflects a cross between art, technology and the context of the sixties.

As Pérez explains, This material is born from a series of reflections that “Yuyo” Noé had during his stay in New York City and when he returned to our country, between 1967 Y 1972.

The text was conceived at a time when Noah seemed distant from painting, turned to intense writing in a moment of crisis, that led the artist to “another type of intellectual production, political and theoretical, especially, under the deep interest of finding new answers to think about art in a context of greater radicalization ", argued Pérez.

Thus, Noah's new book meets the premise of restoring the so-called "1968 ideology" firsthand: the political crisis of the consumer society and its technological revolution, political and cultural insurrections in the United States, such as the fight for civil rights of the Black Power and the resistance to the Vietnam War and the French May in Europe.

In your presentation, Pérez maintains that “all these, rebellions that were traversed by the Third World wars of liberation and the imaginary emancipators of colonial societies; criticism of advanced industrial society, new readings of Marxism and alternatives to the capitalist system; the crisis of western "art culture" and art practices, that for those years they found other modes of production, collective cultural and political action and intervention for social change ".

To these problems, Noah seeks, "Test a response under the notions of an‘ aesthetics of participation ’and of the‘ aesthetics of hope ’", Pérez finished.
