2015 / Praxisseminar “Kunst und Nicht-Kunst im Kunstkontext” With Jens Badura and Philip Matesic | Zurich University of the Arts, MA Fine Arts.
Kunstkontexte sind vermehrt Räume zur Verhandlung von Fragestellungen und Debatten,die sich etwa mit Blick auf aktuelle politische Verhältnisse und Entwicklungenstellen oder unter dem Label Forschung geführt werden – um nur zwei Beispiele zunennen. Im Seminar wollen wir entlang von Fallbeispielen und vor allem mit Blick auf die eigenen Arbeiten gemeinsam untersuchen, welche sich verändernden Kunst– und künstlerischen Selbstverständnisse hinter diesen Entwicklungen stehen, wodurch Kunstkontexte heute eine spezifische Weise der Verhandlung ermöglichen, wie durchlässig die Grenze zwischen Diskursen innerhalb und ausserhalb vonKunstkontexten ist und was dies für das Verhältnis von Kunst und Nicht-Kunst bedeutet Kunstkontexten ist und was dies für das Verhältnis von Kunst und Nicht-Kunst bedeutet. Das Seminar umfasst neben Arbeitseinheiten mit Präsentationen und Diskussion eine Exkursion und schliesst auch die Abfassung eines schriftlichen Statements zum Thema ein, bei dem die eigene Positionierung formuliert und reflektiert werden soll.
