This chapter makes explicit the association of certain art forms and art
works to trans- and posthumanist ideas, which have become constitutive of the
political, cultural and philosophical differences and similarities that exist between
these concepts. It discusses a range of art practices with a view to identifying
themes within trans- and posthumanist art, while also articulating some of
the foundational contributions in this field. It begins by advancing a definition of
bioart to capture the common ground between transhumanist and posthumanist
art. It then considers interpretations of such works and rejection of their collective
definition, by drawing attention to their socio-political and bioethical context.
Finally, I consider how one may read bioart from the perspective of transhumanist
and posthumanist thought. Throughout, some of the defining artists in
the fields of transhumanist and posthumanist art are considered.
