Ecosystems, NGO-ization und die Zukunft der gemeinschaftsorientierten Kunst: Die documenta fifteen als Fallstudie
A new DFG-funded project on documenta fifteen will launch at the research unit Art and Economies this summer. It will focus on ruangrupa’s lumbung concept as socially-engaged artistic practice in the Global South. Through an in-depth examination of infrastructures, organizational practices, and the conceptual positions of artists and collectives, the project aims to provide a well-founded analysis of documenta fifteen’s novel approach and its implications for the future of documenta, the global art world, and the role of art institutions in the Global North.
