Joseph Nechvatal's contemporary art practice engages in the
fragile wedding of image production and image resistance. Through his version
of an art-of-noise, he brings a subversive reading to the
human body through computational viruses, articulating concerns regarding
safety, identity and objectivity. In the introduction to the book Selected Essays 1981-2001 by Peter
Halley, Richard Milazzo describes Joseph Nechvatals theoretic output as a
systematic onslaught of critical theory. (Halley, Peter Selected Essays 1981-2001, Edgewise Press. 2013, pp. 34 35)
Since 1986, Nechvatal has worked
with ubiquitous electronic visual information, computers and computer-robotics.
His computer-robotic assisted paintings and computer software animations are
shown regularly in galleries and museums throughout the world. From 1991-1993
he worked as artist-in-resident at the Louis Pasteur Atelier and the Saline
Royale / Ledoux Foundation's computer lab in Arbois, France on The Computer Virus Project: an
experiment with computer viruses as a creative stratagem. In 2002 he extended
that artistic research into the field of viral artificial life through his
collaboration with the programmer Stphane Sikora.
Dr. Nechvatal earned his Ph.D. in
the philosophy of art and new technology at The Centre for Advanced Inquiry in
the Interactive Arts (CAiiA) at the University of Wales, Newport, UK where he
served as conference coordinator for the 1st International CAiiA Research
Conference Consciousness Reframed: Art
and Consciousness in the Post-Biological Era (July 1997); an international
conference which looked at new developments in art, science, technology and
consciousness. From 1999 to 2013 Nechvatal taught in the mfa graduate department
at the School of Visual Arts in New York City (SVA). His book of essays Towards an Immersive Intelligence: Essays on
the Work of Art in the Age of Computer Technology and Virtual Reality
(1993-2006) was published by Edgewise Press in 2009. In 2011 his book Immersion Into Noise was published by
the University of Michigan Library's Scholarly Publishing
Office in conjunction with the Open Humanities Press. He has also
published two books with Punctum Press: Miny (ed.) (2014) and Destroyer of Naivets (2015).
