The conference asks on the one hand art critics about their own decisive art experience, which led them to work as art critics, and on the other hand artists about their understanding of the practice of criticism in general that underlies the impulse for their own (art) critical activity. Within this field of reference situated between different media, the practice of criticism is to become recognizable not so much as a universally applicable and always already legitimate method, but rather as a historically specific attitude or positioning in which the contingency of one’s own conditionality is accepted and transformed into the social-symbolic space of contemporary art. Here, the lack of a given canonical meaning corresponds to the importance of an engaged practice of judgment, in which one’s own indeterminacy can appear as a condition for the possibility of a symbolic opening onto a beyond of art and criticism.
