In diesem Seminar setzen wir uns zunächst gemeinsam mit grundlegenden Texten zum Thema „Re-Storying History“ auseinander und fragen, welche Bedeutung dieser Ansatz für historische Narrative hat.

Contemporary Iranian art occupies a complex space at the intersection of aesthetics, politics, and social transformation. Within a repressive regime that systematically censors dissent, artistic practices emerge that confront the boundaries of expression while giving form to resistance, memory, and hope. This seminar explores how artists in Iran—and in the Iranian diaspora—respond to authoritarian structures, state control, and systemic violence.… 2025W, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

The practice-based seminar explores the intersections between theatre and film. Nearly every second contemporary stage production makes use of video and filmic aesthetic techniques. Theatre thus becomes a hybrid art form, and so-called video-design emerges as an independent genre. In this seminar, we focus on the use of live on-stage cameras in combination with theatrical scenes. Working in small groups… 2025W/2026S, Lecture with Practical Exercises, 2.0 ECTS

Im Sommersemester vertiefen wir unsere Auseinandersetzung mit der Schwerkraft. Die Technikgeschichte weiß von unzähligen Anstrengungen zu berichten, die Gravitation zu überwinden, sie auszutricksen, ihr zu entkommen oder sie für eine Vielzahl von Bewegungsarten produktiv zu machen. Wenngleich Wissenschaftler:innen und Ingenieur:innen in der Architektur, der Statik, der Mechanik oder der Weltraumtechnik Modelle entwickelten, die Schwerkraft berechenbar zu machen, bleibt sie in… 2025W/2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

The bourgeois is the subject of modernity. As Immanuel Wallerstein puts it: “Hero for some, villain for others, the inspiration or lure for most, he has been the shaper of the present and the destroyer of the past.” Initially designating the inhabitant of the “bourg” (an urban area), the bourgeois designated a new social type, a new class, “free” from… 2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

“The correct question regarding the horrors committed in the camps, therefore, is not the question that asks hypocritically how it could have been possible to commit such atrocious horrors against other human beings; it would be more honest, and above all the more useful, to investigate carefully how—that is, thanks to what juridical procedures and political devices—human being could have… 2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

Ein Begriff von Kunst ist keineswegs selbstverständlich oder unabänderlich. Die Idee der Kunst ist an die spezifischen historischen und kulturellen Bedingungen gebunden und artikuliert sich beispielsweise in Relation zu den jeweiligen Vorstellungen von "Gesellschaft", "Subjekt", "Geschichte" oder "Politik". Thema des Seminars sind die unterschiedlichen Wege, um den Problemzusammenhängen eines Begriffs von Kunst zu begegnen. Wir werden (einführend) die Fragen und… 2026S, Introductory Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

Around 1900, two sciences emerged that sought to discover what makes humans human. While ethnology devoted itself to the diversity of cultural manifestations, psychoanalysis attempted to explore the fundamental workings of the soul. These sciences often contradicted each other: one focused on differences, while the other argued primarily on the basis of similarities. Nevertheless, Sigmund Freud's work Totem and Taboo… 2025W, Introductory Seminar, 1.5 ECTS

Jenseits der unmittelbaren Annahme, dass der Blick durch seine Repräsentation das Wirkliche wahrnimmt, zeigt sich der Blick in allerhand Intrigen verwickelt: In der Gliederung unseres „Ichs“, in der technischen Zusammensetzung von Wahrnehmung, in der Differenz von Schein und Wahrheit.

The course looks at different scales of urbanized landscapes, questioning the relationship between densely built cores and seemingly supportive hinterlands. In lectures, readings and seminar, and by means of selected examples, common paradigms of spatial organizational principles are critically reflected in order to reassess their relevance  with regard to current dynamics.   2025W, scientific seminar, 3.0 ECTS

National and international conflicts, the consequences of disasters, but also of social injustices, repeatedly promote scenarios and thought patterns in cultural studies and artistic works that allow the respective potential of a situation to be rethought or further developed. This often gives rise to utopian or dystopian visions of the future, which in turn allow conclusions to be drawn about… 2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

Something with Media – Integration – Improvisation – Intervention This course focuses—taking its cue from film as a semi-industrially produced, collaborative medium—on the collective development of media-based artistic works situated between improvisation, political intervention, and inclusive organization.

What does it mean to think materialistically? One might assume that those who think materialistically reckon with the smallest unit of measurement, which is supposed to form the material basis of our thoughts and actions. One might think that those who think materialistically look at the material prerequisites and trace social issues, politics, and art back to these. But is… 2026S, scientific seminar, 4.0 ECTS

The question is not to be answered, but rather to form the focus of the discussion: as a philosophical question whose expression is uncertain. The question of what art is is not asked everywhere and at all times. The lectures explores several forms of expression of the question in order to show that they are intertwined. Their interconnection gives rise,… 2026S, Lecture, 2.0 ECTS

Kritikalität bestimmt den Diskurs der Gegenwartskunst. Ob eine bestimmte künstlerische Praxis kritisch genug ist, ob Institutionskritik bereits akademisiert und vereinnahmt worden ist oder ob sie als Infrastrukturkritik erneuert werden sollte, welche kritischen Strategien heute überhaupt noch Erfolg versprechen … – die Fragen, die die Kunstwelt beschäftigen, kreisen um die Figur einer kritischen Kunst.
