In the symposium we want to join with a series of thinkers and cultural practitioners in exploring the current political potential of feminism in the age of globalization. Can its methods of enquiry, critique, and activism aid in thinking about contemporary identity? We are interested in thinking about what would the issues be for a global feminism today.

In the morning the keynote speaker Rosi Braidotti will outline the intellectual terrain from her perspective. In the afternoon we open out the debate in relation to the practice of artists such as Hito Steyerl. Ruth Noack has been invited to speak from a curatorial perspective.

With keynote speaker Rosi Braidotti, respondent Unni Gjertsen; Conversations between Hito Steyerl & Diana McCarty; Mounira Al Solh & Katarina Zdjelar and a performance by Stefanie Seibold & Christine Lemke.
