Buchpräsentation: Das Leben der Kunst. Transversale Linien der Sorge

English-Deutsch
20 Mar 24 [19:00] – 20 Mar 24 [21:00] · Depot – Kunst und Diskussion, Breite Gasse 3, 1070, Wien

Das neue Buch von Bojana Kunst beschäftigt sich mit dem komplexen Verhältnis zwischen Leben und Kunst und diskutiert dieses unter dem Blickwinkel der Sorge. Dabei werden nicht nur die Hintergründe gegenwärtiger Sorgedebatten untersucht, sondern die Autorin streicht auch deren ambivalenten Charakter heraus: Sorge kann ebenso sehr Teil von Gewaltverhältnissen sein, wie sie zur Grundlage für eine poetisch-imaginative Neuorientierung von sozialer, ökologischer und mikropolitischer Relationalität werden kann.

Bojana Kunst's new book deals with the complex relationship between life and art and discusses this relationship from the angle of care. The author not only critically examines various backgrounds to contemporary debates on care, but furthermore lays an emphasis on its ambivalent character: care can be part and parcel of relations of violence as much as it can become the basis for a poetic-imaginative reorientation of social, ecological and micropolitical relationality.
