“INAESTHETICS -NR.0 Theses on Contemporary Art”
Posted by Farhang Erfani on August 29th, 2008
We are glad to annouce the nummer 0 of the new magazine “INAESTHETICS” published by Tobias Huber and Marcus Steinweg.
The idea of the journal INAESTHETICS lies in insisting in an alliance or friendship between two independent ways of touching truth: Art and philosophy belong together insofar as each maintains its autonomy. The friendship between art and philosophy can only be thought as an alliance between autonomous contacts with truth. The journal INAESTETHICS is dedicated above all to this ideal of autonomous collaboration and friendship. Our aim is, instead of pursuing a single direction in thinking, to give room to the contradictoriness which keeps the thinking of art and the thinking of philosophy, as well as the thinking of the friendship between art and philosophy, in a state of permanent restless, which helps to create new categories and terms. We want to establish INAESTHETICS as a place of encounter between art and philosophy. And, as we all know, an encounter can only take place when its outcome and consequences remain uncertain.
The magazine contains texts in english, french and german language.
