Beschreibung
Present whenever people act together and yet never seen for what they do, spaces of appearance come in many guises: a car crash in Vienna, a discussion forum in Dresden, a bakers queue in Paris, an art festival in Shiraz, an unbuilt house in Istanbul, a law court in Berlin, a photograph from Arkansas. Taking their cue from Hannah Arendts famous concept, the case studies in this volume, written in close collaboration, examine how the perceptive standards of a given political situation may subtly change or consolidate. Supported by a wealth of images, this volume demonstrates how the concept can be activated for innovative research especially in cases where an understanding of aesthetics and politics needs to go beyond their analogization. Featuring an essay by Susan Buck-Morss.
