Abstract

In achieving frameless art within the scope of conceptual one, the approach of contemporary art is to utilize the technological revolution and emphasize interaction between audience and the work of art, taking into account the environmental concepts. Ecological art, as one of the most contemporary art forms, represents a new avant-garde style through its treatment of the environmental crisis. The environmental degradation has created a common space for the actors to represent the interaction of different discourses of knowledge, including the different dimensions of science in understanding this issue. By this way, this research is necessary to explain the art-science interaction in ecological art and understand the discursive relations in contemporary art; hence, it is carried out by studying the representation of the interaction between the above two with a critical approach to the environmental crisis as well as the discursive formation in Foucault's reading of episteme. This paper tries to study the discursive formation of ecological art based on science with the assumption of the synergy of art-science as the discursive platform of contemporary art in representing the environmental crisis. The research method in explaining the discursive rules of ecological art is based on the epistemological description in the theory Foucault, which is based on library resources. Using a variety of experimental, interactive, and participatory techniques, contemporary ecological art can regenerate the discursive space of the environmental crisis through interaction between scientific institutions based on scientific research. The art-science relationship can be considered a schema of the epistemology of our time.
