Narrative & Knowledge - Erzählen und Wissen

The way the artists represented in this volume frame historical objects and events through their works challenges the viewer to pose questions about alternative views of history. Across a broad range of perspectives, a multifaceted picture emerges, acting as an invitation to reconsider and rethink complex historical narratives in art. Art is understood as an opportunity to develop a transgressive understanding that mediates between the disciplines to address the challenges of the present time. For the way we perceive the past governs how we will behave in the future — and how we will want to, be able to, or have to change.
