Dislocating Institutions: Theses/Momentums of (Un)Making Spaces of Culture

• Cultural and academic institutions have been in crisis for quite some time now. In many cases, they still refer to a canon that has been made obsolete by global developments – in particular, by new voices from the Global South. Their modes of knowledge production operate within disciplinary bounds that can no longer cope with the Anthropocene’s radical processes of change, and their self-referential paradigms have ceased to reflect social change and the needs of society. Against this backdrop, the book discusses new counter-institutional practices and concepts, examining specific examples that reframe intellectual and pragmatic responses to concrete situations of societal conflict. These examples furthermore demonstrate a new connection between social, aesthetic and academic forms of work based on integrative, multi-perspectival approaches that transcend existing divides.
