The Milk of Dreams - A Posthuman Revolution at the 59th Venice Biennale

This is a succinct history of posthumanism in art to provide readers with important reference points that explain the meaning of recurring aesthetics across the works exhibited at the Venice Biennale of 2022. Cecilia Alemani has curated a “Posthuman Biennale”, so the worldwide press reports. The New York-based curator used the term posthuman at the opening press conference and also gave Rosi Braidotti—the posthuman Italian pioneer—a special mention. While to art audiences, posthumanism might sound new and cutting edge, or even outright mysterious—the latest trend in a post-COVID world that’s lost faith in itself—the posthuman revolution has been causing a stir in academia for over 40 years and its roots reach far deeper into 1960s western philosophy and early modern art.
