Lecture Series "Aesthetic Dimensions of the Political" Archives des luttes des femmes en Algerie

"Art constitutes one of the rare locations where acts of transcendence can take place and have a wide-ranging transformative impact." (bell hooks)

Following bell hooks' conceptualization of art and artistic creation as fundamentally transformative, in the lecture series "Aesthetic Dimensions of the Political: Art, Activism, Participation" in the summer semester of 2022, we would like to discuss with speakers* from different disciplines. These bring different fields of activity, thematic emphases, and regional focuses that are connected by feminist, queer-feminist, and gender-related issues.

The lectures take place every Monday from 6 pm in the Kunsthochschule-Nordbau, Menzelstraße 13, room 0605. They are open to the public. Further information and dates
