The technology industry, the mechanisms of the Internet and social media, the culture of corporations and startups, the world of work, blockchains and cryptocurrencies are just some of the research fields in which Simon Denny is interested. These phenomena of the contemporary world, which increasingly reveal a potential to transform relationships between individuals, social dynamics, aesthetic standards, the rules of coexistence and communication, are investigated through installation, sculptural, performative works, such as talks and symposia, videos, graphics and printing. The artistic gesture acts directly in the material world, through interventions and actions that play in an interpretative short circuit. Such an experimental and speculative approach is capable of determining unprecedented readings and visions, generating possible utopias and new ideals, while also highlighting economic systems and power relations. The artist’s work thus presents itself as an allround investigation into the dynamics of the current world, interpreted with its contradictions and problems. For the 58th October Salon Denny reactivates a recent work, in which a series of felt tip drawings and photographs, simultaneously documenting and critiquing debate sessions from the European Parliament’s Next Generation Internet Summit, are adapted to the exhibition space with a few new elements. Conceived as a further chapter of the artist’s ongoing research investigating the European regulatory activity begun in 2017, the installation is a reflection on how the expansion of the Internet and the power of technological platforms influence both political and social dynamics in the contemporary world. Security, equality, democracy, privacy and the possibility of regulating the Internet system in the light of an interconnected and globalized contemporaneity are only a few of the themes around which the artist’s quest develops, as shown with analytic precision in the panels on exhibit.
