Естетико-политически дискурс: репрезентация и режими на видимост
The paper focuses on an attempt to conceptualize the ambivalent relationship between art and politics in the framework of a certain aesthetic-political discourse based on the concept of regimes of visibility. The exposition goes through the idea of definite prescriptive principles lying in the basis of an axiomatically accepted idea of art’s transformative function regarding the political status quo. In this context, the notions of the aesthetic and the political undergo a process of re-conceptualization, following key ideas such as Rancière’s distribution of the sensible and Roland Bleiker’s aesthetic representation.
