Bergit Arends
Ways to the Anthropocene
Critical Narratives and Disorientation
Keynote Talks & Workshops Social/Urban MovementsIn connection with the politics of the Anthropocene, the curator Bergit Arends speaks about artists who work with cultures of the black diaspora to question the relationships between the human being, country and conceptions of nature.
She discusses projects of contemporary visual artists who use archives together with photography as documentary and performative media to examine environmental changes. These artistic practices reject individual perspectives on environmental changes in favour of a diverse and decentralised idea of environment.
