Abstract

The paper presents the notion of postphenomenology and implies that postphenomenological body is both sensual and spiritual. It is ambivalent, perhaps even paradoxical. As such, it seems a perfectly suitable tool for describing the work of artists who, for instance, as Marion Laval-Jeantet, injected herself horse blood plasma or make bread containing fragments of their own DNA with a view to ritually consuming it, as Karolina Żyniewicz did. Is radical postphenomenology able to grapple with the radicalism of artistic and art&science practices in a cognitively prolific gesture? Putting it differently, the question is whether artistic actions selected in this paper break open the conceptual framework of postphenomenology, or whether they expand the limits of discourse about art phenomena.
