Vortrag
In his lecture, Vasyl Cherepanyn will analyze the cultural and political context in Europe with regards to democracy affected by populism, the potential of political solidarity and the threat of the extreme right, arguing that the future of a united Europe is at stake for the left today. The presentation also focuses on the functioning of public institutions under the conditions of war in Ukraine, where radical attitudes and hostility have continued to increase, and hate speech has spread on both national and international levels, connecting symbolic and real violence to their influence on cultural processes. What actions need to be taken to reclaim democracy in a time when it became a fetish to cover the political alternative? How do ideological polarizations in contemporary societies affect the way the artistic field operates? Instead of speculating about what art and culture can bring to politics, it's the artists themselves who must proclaim – where art fails only politics can help?
