“It is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.” Jameson’s famous quip, suggesting that the capitalist horizon had become co-terminus with our human imaginary, has turned into a bad joke. It seems both might go down together!
In this seminar we explore where art and culture might stand in relation to the end of the world and what we might expect from it. What kind of shared imaginary can art help create? What kind of dramatological orientation can it give us towards a future culture in common?
Registration essential, light catering provided.
