Conference: "radius of art" The next revolution will not be funded - Ruth Wilson Gilmore

The next revolution will not be fundedIs art to be understood as a philosophically acting entity – a brand of modernism that is revolutionary and perpetually unfinished – for which a public still has to be invented? Or will art only be encouraged, supported, and recognised if it does justice to prescribed criteria and merely “supplies” a culture industry? The consequence would be that important projects – projects difficult to grasp, “incomprehensible” by nature – would fall through the net of funding structures and media.Speakers:Ruth Wilson Gilmore (Graduate Center of the City University, New York)Moderator:Gertrud Sandqvist (Malmö Art Academy/Lund University) Concept/Coordination:Jürgen Bock (Maumaus School of Visual Arts, Lisbon)The session will be in English and German
