Let’s talk #2 –
About Grieving in Current Times
The second part of this talk series explores conditions of collective grieving in the age of multiple crises. Three artists whose works contribute to the processing of current trauma, pain and terror will come together to share ideas. Until society as a whole agrees on an interpretation of recent attacks, crises and wars, activists and artists are often the ones to fill the void of remembrance and grieving. The panel asks: Which artistic means are helpful and adequate for dealing with the emotional and social devastation of the present? The goal is to use individual works and perspectives to highlight exemplary forms of artistic approaches and initiate broader debates. This event is not intended to cover every relevant crisis of the present in all its depth – we kindly ask for your understanding.
