Arte en la pospandemia: Una aproximación a las nuevas propuestas para cohabitar

Abstract

The role of art, much like the rest of society, has been profoundly impacted by the pandemic, a crisis that has prompted deep reflections on our ways of life and coexistence. The social and economic transformations we have experienced have led to a reevaluation of our priorities and needs at all levels. The context generated by this challenge has led contemporary artists to reconsider concepts such as artistic production, co-creation, and the relationship with the Other, thereby opening up a multifaceted and multidimensional reflective space that expands the boundaries of art into areas where the existence of the Other, and the way we relate to it, are particularly relevant. In this context, the ideas of co-habitation, creativity, and innovation take on special importance as tools for social transformation. In this article, we explore the contributions of theorists and artists who address topics such as co-habitation, interconnection, and collaboration, highlighting the potential of contemporary art as a space for encounter and dialogue capable of fostering solidarity, hope, and social change in a world marked by uncertainty.
