Abstract
This essay explores the importance of bioArt within the historical moment of the Anthropocene. It raises questions as to why artists and art educators need to pay attention to its developments, although these developments seem marginal and minor. To do so, I turn to the early works of Eduardo Kac and Tissue Culture and Art Project (TC&A) and Natalie Jeremijenko where the question of “life” is explored in order to outline the impact that bioArt has made concerning the ethical and political issues surrounding bioengineering. This raises the difference between philosophy of biology vs. biophilosopy as raised by the theorist Eugene Thacker.
