Abstract

The article is focused on a new form of art, the “bio art”. Bio art rises in science laboratories and it deals with phenomenon of life. So the artifacts produced by bio artists using so called “wet media” balance on a very thin line. From philosophical as well as aesthetical point of view the bio-artifacts seem to extremely interesting since they generate multiple aesthetical, ethical, ontological, and epistemological problems, such is the fascinating bilateral relationship between art and science on the one hand as well as between artist and scientist, on the other. The bio art coping with problems of civilization and its wasteful management opens a controversial curtain from behind some interesting questions emerge. Is the anti-anthropocentric bio art still rational? Do we face here with a new bio-rational topos of art? If yes, what is the cultural role and metaphysical significance of Bio Art?
