This book addresses the main questions and challenges of aesthetics and art theory in the increasingly complex context of digital culture. It offers a broad, deep and detailed study of the new questions, categories and concepts that have emerged in the artistic field as a result of the transformations caused by the information revolution, placing special emphasis on what happened in the first two decades of the 21st century.

The perspective of philosophical analysis of new artistic practices establishes in this writing a continuous and very personal dialogue with the methodologies of Visual Studies and Art History. This is to facilitate the understanding of the main artistic strategies most committed to critical reflection on the digital age, as well as to glimpse its lines of evolution in the future.

The text emphasizes central problems in recent art, such as the production of subjectivity, difference, identity, participation..., analyzing them in their specific relationship with some of the new technological developments (social networks, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, virtual reality, blockchain…).

A book, in short, fundamental for understanding the impact that digital evolution is having on the development of artistic creation in our present, as well as about the new paths that are opening up for its theorization, dissemination and commercialization.
