[University of Graz, Centre for Southeast European Studies] Online Book Launch: “The National Frame: Art and State Violence in Turkey and Germany” by Dr. Banu Karaca
May 20, 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm UTC+1
In “The National Frame: Art and State Violence in Turkey and Germany” Dr. Banu Karaca explores the art settings and actors of two cities: Istanbul and Berlin. The book is an ethnographic investigation of how artists navigate the art world, the dependencies and power differentials it creates and reproduces, their relationship to cultural policies, and how arts patrons and sponsors see their role in society. It tells the often-unsettling stories of the monies that sustain the art world: More often than not, art capital is rooted in histories of state violence and dispossession.
Date/Time: Thursday, 20 May 2021, at 18:00-19:30 (CET).
