Riassunto
Twelve artists explore radically self-reflexive research attitudes integrating embodied experiences within the production of theory.
Standpoint Autotheory encompasses a multitude of manifestations of radically self-reflexive research attitudes. It traces research based artistic practices through twelve contributions that propose a performative integration of the personal within the production of theory and explore the entanglements of subjectivity with criticality aimed at social transformation by questioning dominant epistemologies.
The positions assembled in the book are permeated by different modes of thinking and practice such as autoethnography, practices of the self, auto-historia teoría, standpoint theories, strong objectivity and situated knowledge, self-authority, narrativity and storytelling, radical positioning, performative philosophy, autofiction, thinking-feeling, and other methods that, through the interrogation of embodied experiences, illuminate the connections between the personal and the political, as well as the individual and the communal.

Informazioni sull?autore
Ana de Almeida is an artist and researcher living and working in Lisbon and Vienna. In her practice, de Almeida deals with individual and collective memory and processes of remembering from a socio-political perspective, with the intersection of family-narratives and macro-political events and with processes of privatization of history. She is a Doc-Team fellow of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and research assistant at the Institute of Art Theory and Cultural Studies of the Academy of Fine Arts of Vienna.
Mariel Rodríguez Rodríguez is a research based artist interested in decolonial artistic methodologies, resistance practices, self reflexivity and relational research forms. Her artistic practice and theoretical reflections are shaped by her personal experience of migration from Mexico to Austria and the movements within. In her work she explores connections between identity construction and representation from an intersectional perspective moving between different media and aesthetic languages. She works as lecturer and assistant at the Institute of Fine Arts and Cultural Studies in the area of Artistic Research at the University of Arts and Design in Linz.
