230390 Politische Kunst (S) (SoSe 2026)

Contents, comment

Im Seminar analysieren und diskutieren wir anhand konkreter Beispiele aus verschiedenen Kunstsparten, inwieweit Kunst politisch sein kann – oder muss. Beginnend mit der Frage, was eigentlich Politik und ob sie nicht auch eine Kunst ist, untersuchen und prüfen wir Werke aus Bildender Kunst, Theater, Musik, Literatur, Fotografie und Film bis hin zu Subkulturen wie Street Art oder Queer Punk auf ihre politische Dimension und Wirkung.
