What contribution can and should art make to society today? What do artists who intervene in public space want and are able to do?

Based on the triad oikos - polis - ethos, a social regime of art is proposed as a time-diagnostic hypothesis.

A book presentation by the WittenLab: The publication "Gesellschaft leisten. Aktuelle Interventionskunst und ihre Rechtfertigungsnarrative" by Aude Bertrand-Höttcke has just been published by Kulturverlag Kadmos Berlin and was produced with the kind support of the Geschwister Boehringer Ingelheim Stiftung für Geisteswissenschaften.

The event is free of charge.
