Wednesdays at AVU - Norbert Lacko: The Frames of Modernity
VVP AVU would like to invite you to a series of presentations from the autumn cycle Wednesdays at AVU
NORBERT LACKO /Bratislava/
FRAMES OF MODERNITY
ON CRITICAL THINKING AS A WAR ACT AND WHAT MAY BE BEYOND ITS BORDERS
2-11-2016, 18:00
Critical thinking as a war act understands the problem of art in a close connection with the understanding of the social world as a dynamic environment created by power relations. The dimension of power is not present here merely as an addition to art theory, but directly as a fundamental construction element in the form of an ontological minimum, and at the same time a source of the dynamics of historical events. For us, this may mean a problem that needs to be addressed, so that the understanding of art does not take place only in the form of negative pointing out historical injustices, exploitation, or as demystification of ideological mystifications, but in such a way that it is possible to build a positive science of works and aesthetic experience.
Norbert Lacko (*1975) is an assistant professor at the Department of Theory and History of Art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava. He teaches the subjects Fundamentals of Philosophy and History of Aesthetics.
The cycle was prepared by Anna Daučíková, moderated by Tomáš Hříbek
Academy of Fine Arts in Prague
U Akademie 4, auditorium – 3rd floor
Lectures are available online on the online streaming page or later from the recordings in iVysílání.
