Overview

The publications in this series examine processes of entanglement from an art-historical perspective. Entanglement is not understood as levelling but as the acknowledgement of difference as a theme, difference becoming topical itself Accordingly, processes of entanglement may also result in the failure of exchange processes, untranslatability, and opacity. The series discusses the consolidation and dissolution of border-regimes and markers of difference in various fields and epochs. For instance, individual volumes address transcultural negotiations, human-animal relations, or the political and above all postcolonial dimensions of the relation between culture and nature. In addition, religious intermeshing, such as discussions of transcendence, or intersectional shifts between ethnicity, gender, class, religion or denomination, age, etc. are analyzed. From the perspective of art history and visual studies (Bildwissenschaften), specific questions must also be raised about the media of entanglement. How do visual media drive processes of entanglement on the one hand, but serve to highlight difference on the other? What part can competition between various image media play in this context?
