Spring Seminar 2023 · Montage

The Spring Seminar 2023 will discuss montage as a decisive strategy for 
the arts and for philosophy, from modernity to the present. The use of 
montage has become a way of breaking with the traditional claim of 
theoretical completeness or beautiful aesthetic harmony, making it clear 
that it is more about assembling fragments than totalizing an absolute 
truth. It opens a different way for conceiving knowledge and political 
practice.

In this context, different proposals and different areas of research and 
artistic practices are welcome to think about montage in art, criticism, 
philosophy, curatorship, and culture production in general:

                 •             montage of ideas against totalization of 
truth;

                 •              curatorial practice as montage and 
performativity;

                 •             political implications of montage;

                 •             fragments in art and philosophy;

                 •             different approaches in dialectical 
thinking;

                 •             unconscious associations in poetry and 
psychoanalysis;

                 •             collages in painting and arts;

                 •             different montage practices in cinema;

                 •             film essays and other forms of 
appropriation films in contemporary cinema;

                 •             images and photomontages;

                 •             sound juxtapositions in music;

                 •             montage between different art forms;

                 •             essay as a form in writing or images;

                 •             archive and memory in the historical 
knowledge of the past.
