Vortragsreihe Kunst - Forschung - Geschlecht
Anti-gender and digital authoritarianism
In the academic year 2025/26, the lecture series looks at anti-gender politics and policies in art, culture and society in the digital realm. The series asks how reactionary actors dismantle concepts of equality, justice, and sexual/reproductive rights, especially in and through digital media. Furthermore, it wants to highlight artistic practices and societal alliances that disrupt these media narratives, and generate counter-narratives to the anti-liberal, authoritarian, discriminatory, racist and extremist ideologies.
