The project entails the organization of a series of workshops dedicated to the relation between philosophy and contemporary art, more precisely on the role of the conceptual apparatus of philosophy in the practice and the discourse of contemporary arts, having invited as lecturers Cristian Iftode, Bogdan Ghiu, Christian Ferencz-Flatz, Constantin Vică, and Adrian Bojenoiu.

The workshops submit into dialogue distinctions, concepts and ideas relevant for understanding the shifts occurred in the field of art since the first decades of the 20th century till now (avant-garde and neo-avant-garde movements, video and digital art, AI-Art) strategically traversing philosophical movements (such as phenomenology, critical theory, psychoanalysis, structuralism, French theory, the philosophy of technology) and the theoretical framework of art institutions.

The discussions were held in Romanian and are not yet available in English translation. For this reason all the information about the project and ist outcome can be found on the Romanian version of this page. To visit the page click HERE.
