The programme series CRITIQUE AND CRISIS questioned over the span of three years between 2012-2015 the last common denominator of European crisis philosophy, namely, the basis of a democratic order that still holds today.

But what is left of liberté, égalité, fraternité? The goal of the series was to see how these basic principles of the shared European identity measure up to Europe’s current self-image from the perspective of artists.

Situations of crisis play a crucial role in the dissolution of existing structures and the creation of new ones. This is precisely the point at which CRITIQUE AND CRISIS gets to work as it opened up a space for examining and reflecting on our own preconceived notions and prejudices. Language: English
