The limits of the human have expanded in recent times. New medicines and life-extension technologies have pushed the limits of what can be considered as existential, or biological, life.
The conference “The limits of the human in latin american visual culture” invites contributions from cultural studies, anthropology, media theory and political science, as well as work which crosses and exceeds disciplinary boundaries.
This two-day international conference will return to the human and interrogate its limits. It will tackle this question and others in relation to the drawing, erasing and reframing of the human in Latin American visual culture. More information
