Relational Creatures - “Artistic Approaches to Forced Migration and the Dilemma of the Nation State”
Wednesday, May 12, 2021Student Exhibition
5:00 pm - 8:00 pm
How can we go beyond the failings and fixations of the existing, nation-state based, international institutions regarding the protection of the forcibly displayed? While there is no replacement for them in sight?
This year’s OSUN (Open Society University Network) supported research-creation class “Artistic Approaches to Forced Migration and the Dilemma of the Nation State”, led by BCB faculty Marion Detjen and Dorothea von Hantelmann, combines historical research, artistic practice, and theories of Hannah Arendt, Achille Mbembe and others, to bear the ambivalences and discover new ways of understanding ourselves, moving in time and in space, as relational creatures.
