Symposium: radical relaxation

The content on this page was translated automatically.

Artistic concepts of "relaxed performance" and "aesthetics of accessibility" have recently been discussed in ever greater detail. They are a response to a barely containable momentum of a thoroughly economized art industry that threatens to drive its institutions and the people working in them to their immanent limits and at the same time excludes and marginalizes many members of society from the supposed 'enjoyment of art'. A rampant compulsion to represent seems to have seized control, which calls for blocking, braking and a systematic strike against attention economies. What formats can be created here, what strategies are permitted? The one-day symposium explores the horizon of a decelerated art production that has placed an axiomatic, i.e. irrefutable equality of its protagonists at the beginning of its practice. It combines artistic and academic contributions and aims to stimulate a broad discourse that crosses various disciplines.

With contributions from
Jule Govrin, Kai van Eikels and many more.
