The False and its Falsifiers: Artistic Practices in Times of Lies

The rapid transformation of truth regimes in recent decades has energized creative practices interested in how languages of authority are formed and performed. As "reality" loses stability, artists probe the tensions of truthful speech-now oriented more toward sincerity than truth- sometimes through counterfeiting techniques. If ghosts, impostors, and algorithms dominate today's conflicts of credibility, many artists adopt their forms, moving between narratives of mathematical governance and markets of radical subjectivity, parodying and faking the interests that shape discourses of uncertainty and volatility. Here, the false emerges as risky but also generative.
