The Aesthetics of Ambiguity

It is a peculiar paradox that multiculturalism is determined by the conditions of monoculturalism. Multiculturalism and pluralism presuppose a shared culture with shared values and convictions about, for example, openness, democracy and equality. In that sense, multiculturalism assumes a monoculture of views and attitudes. As they are very often rigid structures, neither monocultures nor multi-culturalism seem to be able to deal with ambiguity

Learning to live with ambiguities, differences and uncertainties can be the outcome of a cultivation process. For this cultivation of deviations and unexpected vistas, art has played a pivotal role. The Aesthetics of Ambiguity gives the floor to artists, thinkers, and institutional practices who dare to play with the rules of a broader society and thus generate ambiguity `at large'

Dalla quarta di copertina

In The Aesthetics of Ambiguity: Understanding and Addressing Monoculture betogen Pascal Gielen en Nav Haq dat multiculturalisme paradoxaal genoeg gebaseerd is op monocultureel denken. De publicatie verkent deze paradox door monocultuur in verschillende hedendaagse contexten te onderzoeken. Het boek wil monocultuur analyseren met behulp van een veelzijdige benadering, door historische, sociale, culturele en ideologische perspectieven samen te brengen. Kunst kan daarbij zowel dienen als middel voor verzoening als manier om uiting te geven aan verdeeldheid en verschillen.
The Aesthetics of Ambiguity bevat bijdragen over de prakijken van kunstenaars, denkers en instituties die met de regels van de samenleving durven te spelen en daarmee trachten ambigu�teit 'in brede zin' genereren. Dit boek vertegenwoordigt een zoektocht naar en noodzaak van (meer) ambigu�teit. De kunstenaars, activisten en onderzoekers in dit boek pleiten voor een politiek en esthetiek van ambigu�teit om rigide grenzen en polariteiten tussen culturen en tussen kunstpraktijken en wetenschappelijk denken te vermijden. Daarmee dragen zij bij aan een manier om om te gaan met de complexiteit van ons samenleven op aarde.
