| Inhalt | Contemporary painting encompasses a broad spectrum of practices, from the application of paint on surfaces to performative, digital, and spatial strategies. Painting functions as a tool for individual and collective expression, image-making, mapping, and socio-cultural transformation. The themes explored through painting are as limitless as the imagination itself, ranging from everyday habits to complex geopolitical dynamics. Given this expansive field, positioning one’s work becomes ever more critical. This seminar examines contemporary painting in relation to critical and theoretical debates, integrating direct engagement with works in Zurich’s museums and public spaces. Participants will reflect on how existing artistic positions inform their own practice and research, situating their work within ongoing conversations about painting, situatedness, thematic scope, and questions of representation and discursive agency. About the lecturer: Dominique Lämmli, artist and philosopher with a PhD in Global Studies, works studio-based and situation-specific and conducts practice-based and theoretical research. Her areas of interest include drawing/painting across media, research methodologies, and working with art in socio-cultural transformative settings. https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7171-6263 |
