The way the artists represented in this volume frame historical objects and events through their works challenges the viewer to pose questions about alternative views of history. Across a broad range of perspectives, a multifaceted picture emerges, acting as an invitation to reconsider and rethink complex historical narratives in art. Art is understood as an opportunity to develop a transgressive understanding that mediates between the disciplines to address the challenges of the present time. For the way we perceive the past governs how we will behave in the future — and how we will want to, be able to, or have to change.weiterlesen
