Listen "Questioning Bodies #8 | Who owns your health? | Ezio Di Nucci"
Episode Synopsis
"Useless Bodies?" is the exhibition by artists Elmgreen & Dragset presented by Fondazione Prada in Milan from April to August 2022: a thematic investigation of the role of the body in today's society through different aspects of our lives: from work to health, from interpersonal relationships to the way we record information.Through a series of open-ended questions, the episodes of 'Questioning Bodies' bring the body back into the focus of intellectual enquiry. The series presents some of the essays commissioned for the exhibition catalogue, in which philosophers, artists, writers, scientists and thinkers share questions about the changing condition of the human body in a world where our physical presence seems to have lost its centrality.
