INSERT. Artistic Practices as Cultural Inquiries ist eine Open Access Publikationsplattform, die eine Engführung künstlerischer, wissenschaftlicher und kuratorischer Praktiken im Rahmen kulturanalytischer Forschung sucht. Sie versteht Kunst als einen Möglichkeitsraum für Kritik, sowohl im analytischen wie auch im transformativen Sinn. Die einzelnen thematischen Ausgaben/Journals von insert versammeln Beiträge, die an die Frage anknüpfen, inwiefern selbstreflexive ästhetische Praktiken eine Analyse von kulturellen Konstruktionen, deren Politiken und Wirkungsweisen zu leisten vermögen.
INSERT wurde 2020/21 von Sigrid Adorf, Noëmie Stähli und Julia Wolf am Forschungsschwerpunkt Kulturanalyse in den Künsten an der Zürcher Hochschule der Künste im Rahmen des SNF-Forschungsprojekts «Kulturelle Übertragungsprozesse künstlerisch_wissenschaftlich analysieren» entwickelt. Die Ausgaben (in der Regel zwei pro Jahr) widmen sich unterschiedlichen Themenschwerpunkten und werden von wechselnden Herausgeber*innen verantwortet.
After the Law: Towards Judicial-Visual Activism | Avi Feldman [E-Book PDF]
Law and art are oftentimes perceived as standing in opposition, and even seen in conflicting terms. The first is dismissed as provincial, rigid, and bureaucratic, while the latter is repeatedly characterized as global, flexible, and dynamic. Yet, closer observation and analysis reveal hidden links and layers, and substantial preoccupation by both legal and art practitioners in the visual and in the judicial. It is through the unraveling of spaces, gaps, and lacunae in which both fields of practice and knowledge intersect that this publication sets in motion an exploration of influences and interactions between law and art. Offering a new critical approach and methodology to deal with existing and imagined relations between law and art, this publication analyzes curatorial and artistic projects by revealing overlooked legal dimensions embedded within them. It introduces legal theory and scholarship in relation to visual artworks in order to expand and foster new paths for both judicial and visual activism. Based on the reassessment of artistic and curatorial capabilities and encounters in a time of globalization, it is concerned with broadening our perception of the role of art and legal practitioners with regard to justice.
