Atlas Insights: A-Political Animals
In February 2017, choreographer Andros Zins-Browne and visual artist Karthik Pandian will present Atlas Revisited, a production about their attempts to make a group of camels dance in the desert of Ouarzazate. In the meantime, for three Tuesdays evenings, the Atlas/insights will focus on the questions that the preparatons for these attempts raised.
The ethical standards with which we treat animals have been the subject of considerable research. But are animals also capable of political action? Can they inspire us to discover new forms of subjectivity? Philosopher and animal theorist Fahim Amir tells surprising stories about the role of animals in the history of humankind.
LECTURE PERFORMANCE Fahim Amir
