Führung für Sehbehinderte & Blinde: Susan Sontag Susan Sontag. Sehen und gesehen werden

In the organizer's words:

Susan Sontag influenced and polarized as an author, critic, intellectual, political activist, film and photography enthusiast throughout her life. Politically interested and equipped with a sharp tongue, she commented controversially on current affairs. Topics that had previously only played a role in underground or popular culture or were not part of the mainstream were brought into the public eye by Sontag.

Early on, she dealt with the meaning and effect of photography. The core statements of her volume of essays on photography are still highly topical today. The flood of images, dulling, voyeurism, power and powerlessness are put up for discussion. The exhibition also explores Sontag's engagement with queer culture, being a woman in today's society and her own cancer.

Even if the presentation cannot offer any tangible objects, art mediator Uschi Baetz would like to provide you with a detailed description of the works during the tour and integrate them into the cultural-historical context. We look forward to an intensive exchange with you!
