| Summary: | This book examines contemporary artistic practices since 1990 that engage with, depict, and conceptualize history, arguing that art offers fruitful strategies for creating historical consciousness and perspectives for political agency. The analytical instrument of anachrony comes to the fore as an experimental method, as will (para)fiction, counterfactual history, testimonies, ghosts and spectres of the past, utopia, and the "juridification" of history. Dieses Buch untersucht zeitgenössische künstlerische Praktiken seit 1990, die sich mit Geschichte auseinandersetzen, sie darstellen und konzeptualisieren, und argumentiert, dass Kunst fruchtbare Strategien bietet, um historisches Bewusstsein und Perspektiven für politisches Handeln zu schaffen. Das analytische Instrument der Anachronie tritt als experimentelle Methode ebenso in den Vordergrund wie (Para-)Fiktion, kontrafaktische Geschichte, Zeugenschaft, Gespenster und Gespenster der Vergangenheit, Utopie und die "Verrechtlichung" der Geschichte. |
