Descriptif

Public space is the place for assembly, the hub of democracy as well as the manifestation of power and (dis)empowerment of persons. PublicDemoS Project explores the ways in which new forms of public agency extend politics to everyday life experiences by avenues of artistic expressions and aesthetic forms. The core aim of this project is to understand new politics of performative citizenship and public (un)making in multicultural settings.

Project Directed by Nilüfer Göle

International Study Group on Norm Conflicts and Art Forms in (Un)Making of Publics

Meeting 24th of March 2017

Public sphere has been conceptualized as a discursive realm,enlightened sphere of ideas, opinions and rational debate in a nationalcontext. In the contemporary era, cultural heterogeneity and globalconnections challenge the unity of national communities and its norms.Art participates to the agonistic dimension of the public sphere,challenges dominant norms and becomes part of controversies. Visualculture mobilizes affects, accelerates (mis)communications across thenational boundaries in the construction of multicultural settings. Can artand aesthetic forms help to open up the emancipatory potential of thepublic sphere by exploring the ways in which plurality of perspectivescan emerge in the contemporary societies?
