Becoming Human in Times of Post-Humanism
Symposium and open discursive
programme
Curated by Petra Schaper Rinkel and Zeynep Aksöz Balzar
Under the motto "Becoming Human in
Times of Post-Humanism", artistic and discursive positions of the Angewandte gather at the Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts. The
programme will take place in cooperation with the Taipei National University of the Arts from 21 June – 7 July 2024.
With the symposium on 21 and 22 June, we want to examine the idea of becoming human – which
is always a political question – from an interdisciplinary, art-based perspective in which "individuality" is seen as an interactive
process of becoming. For this event, panellists from the Angewandte will be travelling to Taipei to engage in direct exchange
with their colleagues there.
Zeynep Aksöz Balzar, Margarete Jahrmann, Claudia Larcher, Petra Schaper Rinkel of
the University of Applied Arts are in dialogue with Kai-Huang Chen, Yi-Ping Hung, Chien-Hung Huang, Hong-John Lin of the Taipei
National University of the Arts. The symposium will be moderated by Alexander Damianisch, Yatin Lin and Louise Yu-Jui Yang.
