Descolonització generalment indica un procés de superació del colonialisme, associat a les lluites anticolonials en el marc d’estats colonitzats. Però un cop conclou el procés de colonització, no s’esgota en el colonialisme, sinó que inclou moltes altres experiències i articulacions que segueixen operant en el nostre present a través de la naturalització de jerarquies territorials, racials, culturals i epistèmiques, possibilitant la reproducció de relacions de dominació (explotació, subalternizació i obliteració de coneixements, experiències i formes de vida)(Rastrepo y Rojas).
Conferencia: Biopolitics and Necropolitics in relation to the Lacanian four discourses (Marina Grzinic)
The question today that stays for art and theory, the social and the political is the question of the social bond and our place inside it. Are we capable of action, critical analysis, resistance, or better to say insurgency? If yes, how? What is the social bond that structures neoliberal global capitalism? How to talk about ideology, subjectivities, power and life, if it is said that we live today in the world of the post-ideology, post-politics conditions. The lecture will try to rethink these questions and as well confront two conceptualizations of mode of life, on one side the biopolitical and necropolitical and on the other the Lacanian four discourses, in order to answer to the main question of our capacity to react and moreover change these present conditions of capital over-exploitation and dispossession.
Generally speaking, an interview is a method of questioning. Apart from journalism where the interview is an important tool for investigation as well as presentation of information, various forms of interview techniques are applied in science where interviews are traditionally used to collect data and to address particular research questions. Furthermore, interviews are steadily gaining popularity as a method of artistic expression and research.
The workshop gives an overview of the different uses of interview techniques and designs, depending on the particular contexts. The focus will be on the possible uses of the interview format within the art research context. Besides the theoretical overview, there will be practical/technical training along with presentations of examples. The participants are asked to bring along their own interviews or prepare relevant material that can be discussed and further developed within the workshop.
The workshop will be conducted by guest lecturer Ivana Marjanović, PhD candidate, Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. The work that will be done as part of the workshop in the summer semester 2011 will be structured around the production of the book VOCABULARY OF DECOLONIALITY and it will consist of readings and discussions related to the book’s contributions.
