Description
ONGOING DISPLAY! What kind of relation do `the things´ have with each other? Which kind of relation do we wish? How do we like to talk `art, talk about art and how can we even speak "better"? Art as language? Which art is affirming what? I chatGPT in Fine and Visual Arts a "one-trick-pony"?
Let´s plan an exhibition!
MARKET, PLACES & MUSEUMS: How to `display´ an exhibition? Alongside the term "Display" we are discussing art and language in the public and the private in its intersubjectiv interaction in different kind of spaces, including the world wide web, and bringing it toghether in an "assemble", with the help of de Certeau, Judith Butler, Lyotard, Mieke Bal and others. In talks with different artists about different aspects and impacts of `showing art´, we discuss tactics and strategies, Libidinal Economy, gaze and attention, once again display, linguistic statistical models and the borders of creativity, and about connecting science and magic.
In this seminar we go into discourse, do prepare and work on `exhibition´, and especially `group exhibition´, as a set for intersubjectiv narration. The seminar reacts to the exhibitions of the department and gives support in the field of realization.
