Fluid materials bear witness to a material world in constant flux. This volume presents essays from art history and media studies, which explore the aesthetic as well as epistemic potentials of fluids. It is not about the imagery of fluidity, but actual liquid matter. Fluide Materialien sind Zeugen einer Welt in Bewegung. Der Band versammelt kunst- und medienhistorische Beiträge, die den Besonderheiten von flüssigen Stoffen und Materialströmen in Malerei, Film, Fotografie, Skulptur, Installation und Architekturmodellen nachgehen.
