Ars Electronica 2000
KLONES
Dieter Huber/A
Dieter Huber’s computer-manipulated photos treat the cloning and creation of a human being in a way that is both subtle and radical. Taking the tension between naturalness and artificiality as far as it will go, the images of intimate and tabooed body parts enhanced to achieve the utopian state of a medical vision function as an irritant. The cycle KLONES is among the earliest artistic treatments of the potential of genetic engineering, and is also among the few whose results not only comment on this subject but also reflect it by means of a technological process.
