Here is a very very negative review of Ryoji's Ikeda's art installation resulting from his cern residency
https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/jonathanjonesblog/2015/apr/23/art-respond-science-cern-ryoji-ikeda-supersymmetry
Should art respond to science? On this evidence, the answer is simple: no way
Japanese artist Ryoji Ikeda's installation Supersymmetry is inspired by his residency at Cern -
but signifies little more than that physics is weird. Isn't it time we stopped expecting artists to understand the complexities of science?
https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/jonathanjonesblog/2015/apr/23/art-respond-science-cern-ryoji-ikeda-supersymmetry
this is very much along the lines of my colleague Jean Marc Levy=Lebond's book 'Science is not art' where he attacks
much of the mystification of art science practice
the review ends with:
Art<https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/art> and science, we feel, should have something to say to each other. But perhaps they speak different languages after all. I don't speak the language of science too
well, either, but I do know one thing: it is concerned with the wonder of nature. There is a depressing lack of wonder in this technically sophisticated but intellectually and emotionally empty art.
would be interested in Yasminer reactions= has anyone seen the work ?
