EXTRAORDINARY RENDITIONS: THE CULTURAL NEGOTIATION OF SCIENCE CHRISTINE BORLAND & BRODY CONDON, FIONA CRISP, CHRIS DORSETT BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, Gateshead / Level 1 Saturday 7 – Thursday 12 September 2013 as part of British Science Festival Extraordinary Renditions: the Cultural Negotiation of Science features new art works in development by artists from BxNU, a research institute inaugurated within the award-winning partnership between BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art and Northumbria University based at BALTIC 39. For the duration of the British Science Festival Borland/Condon, Crisp and Dorsett will use Level 1 of BALTIC, Gateshead to show evolving projects that challenge the instrumental status of art in the promotion of scientific understanding. Visitors are invited to explore the possibility that art can negotiate the ethical, political and philosophical dilemmas that place scientific achievement outside the ‘ordinary’ and engage with creative approaches that render knowledge, most usually associated with the scientific realm, as a stimulating form of contemporary art.
