Throughout the twentieth century, artists and theorists tried to show that art was not something separate from life. On the contrary, they argued that art had to do with life or even, in the most extreme cases, was life itself. Some authors also strove to show art as an experience. In this way, the horizons of art were widening.
One hundred years have passed and today we are still wondering about the status of the artist and the work of art. After Dadaism, there follows a long trajectory of artists who have opposed the institutionalization of art and have tried to break with the aesthetic theories that had separated art from life. However, the attempt at dissolution and ruptures is not Exempt problematic. At the same time, this raises the question of the role of art in society.
Parallel to this effort of art to return to the terrain of life, the rise of the current design , global and not only industrial, has managed to cross all barriers. Not only are the objects and spaces we inhabit now being designed, but also our experiences and behaviors. This crossing of frontiers has long been arousing great interest in defining what is the design, what is the everyday and what is involved in the aesthetic relationship with the elements of our daily lives.
At the same time, the technological development and the expansion of social networks and the metaverse make us question from new perspectives where are the limits between art, design and life, as well as between reality and fiction. Faced with this panorama of constant change, how do art and life relate to each other today? How can we think about art and life in light of the changes in design and technology?
