| Summary: | "Mara-Johanna Kölmel explores the profound impact of digital technologies on the field of sculpture since the 1950s. When artists create their works using AI, custom software, or prototyping technologies, how should we be rethinking the concept of sculpture? Through the works of Morehshin Allahyari, Alice Channer, and Sterling Crispin, as well as an inter-generational group of artists, she examines how plasticity, corporeality, and monumentality have been transformed by the digital.
