<17> Critical Art Ensemble

The Cult of the New Eve is a project by Critical Art Ensemble, Paul Vanouse, and Faith Wilding.

Cult of the New Eve reacts to modern biotechnology as manifested in its promises of salvation by practising a »new eve« cult aimed to unmask the utopias. In this performance, an intermeshing of electronic information systems with performative theatre practice, CAE explores and provokes the discourse of life science.
In addition to art productions, the artist group CAE organises performances and theory lectures in which they adopt a critical stance towards models of representation geared to a capitalist, political, economic ideology.
