ART IN THE AGE OF ANXIETY - OMAR KHOLEIF KARTON...

Artists and writers examine the bombardment of information  misinformation  emotion  deception
and secrecy in online and offline life in the post-digital age. Every day we are bombarded by
information  misinformation  emotion  deception  and secrecy in our online and offline lives.
How does the never-ending flow of data affect our powers of perception and decision making?
This richly illustrated and boldly designed collection of essays and artworks investigates
visual culture in the post-digital age. The essays  by such leading cultural thinkers as
Douglas Coupland and W. J. T. Mitchell  consider topics that range from the future of money to
the role of art in a post-COVID-19 world  from mental health in the digital age to online
grieving  and from the mediation of visual culture to the thickening of the digital sphere.
Accompanying an ambitious exhibition conceived by the Sharjah Art Foundation and volume editor
and curator Omar Kholeif  the book is a work of art and a labor of love  emulating the
labyrinthine corridors of the exhibition itself. Created by a group of writers  artists 
designers  photographers  and publishers  Art in the Age of Anxiety calls upon us to consider
what our collective future will be and how humanity will adapt to it.
