presents


W. J. T. Mitchell

"The Work of Art in the Age of Biocybernetic Reproduction"

W. J. T. Mitchell is a noted writer and theorist whose interests include
literature, the visual arts, iconography, and popular culture. He is
especially well known for his keen analysis of the word-image
relationship. In his recent publication "The Last Dinosaur Book: The Life
and Times of a Cultural Icon," he examines the pervasive role of
dinosaurs in the popular consciousness. Mitchell has served as Gaylord
Donnelly Distinguished Service Professor of English at the University of
Chicago since 1989. In his talk at Art Center, he will attempt to update
Walter Benjamin?s famous essay on "mechanical" reproduction for our era.
He will consider some recent exhibitions that have focused on genetics,
cloning, and biological engineering and address more general questions
such as the notion of the originality of the artwork, the idea of
reproduction, and the concept of the "age" or period.
