La Internacional Argentina – Part II

 

The Slip announces the second part of the exhibition La Internacional Argentina, further exploring subjectivity as a mutable weave of emotions, tensions, and material and symbolic transitions. This new chapter investigates how intimacy, bodily experiences, and daily life shape contemporary subjectivity and serve as political acts in an increasingly technological world dominated by economic logic. From a critical humanistic perspective, the exhibition examines how subjective experience emerges through continual dialogue with the bodies, objects, and spaces we inhabit. The artistic practices gathered here resist standardization and cultural flattening, celebrating instead the fragmentary, marginal, unexpected, and ephemeral as privileged spaces to imagine alternative collective and personal existences.

 

This exhibition engages with critical debates on the ethics of artificial intelligence, climate justice, feminist philosophy, and new realist movements. The rise of artificial intelligence has reignited discussions on what defines humanity, prompting us to reconsider our philosophical anthropology.

 

These artworks suggest innovative ways of understanding our relationship with the world, the environment, and emerging technologies. They invite reflection on the human condition, consciousness, and bodily experiences within broader networks of interdependence and ethical responsibility, thus critically examining the boundaries between nature, humanity, and technology, as well as emerging forms of subjectivity.

 

The exhibition also explores how social processes influence our ways of knowing, highlighting phenomena such as epistemic injustice, where gender biases silence voices and knowledge. It addresses testimonial epistemology—the importance and validity of personal narratives—in an era dominated by misinformation, existential threats, and our moral obligations toward future generations. Artworks

reflect on the metaphysics of virtual worlds and digital consciousness, animal rights in industrial contexts, biopolitics (the governance of life and bodies), pandemics, and new states of emergency.

 

They also question how digital technology and capitalism impact contemporary subjectivity, ecological crises viewed through posthumanism, and provide social critiques from intersectional feminist perspectives. These critiques emphasize bodily autonomy, sexual rights, and ecofeminism as vital environmental ethics, highlighting the complex ethical challenges of our current collective experiences

and demonstrating how artistic production can catalyze meaningful reflection and change.
