Places to create, places to heal 

During this conference, the German philosopher and sociologist Hartmut Rosa revisits the concepts of the acceleration of our pace of life and resonance, which he has developed throughout his work (notably in Acceleration: A Social Critique of Time and Resonance: A Sociology of Our Relationship to the World, both published in French translation by La Découverte). If acceleration constitutes the central problem of our time, resonance may be the solution. Hartmut Rosa has renewed the analyses of the first generation of the Frankfurt School by considering alienation as acceleration.

The artist, filmmaker and researcher reflects on her approach to computational capitalism and the new modes of subjectivation it produces. In her films, she immerses herself in digital communities. Her first documentary film, La mécanique des fluides (The Mechanics of Fluids), is an investigation that takes as its starting point a suicide note posted by an incel (an involuntary celibate) on the Reddit platform entitled "America is responsible for my death". The investigation takes the form of a virtual drift across the internet in search of his digital traces.

Alternative educational spaces: from utopia to institutionalisation.

Les Amis des Beaux-Arts de Paris is organising a masterclass with artist Fabrice Hyber in conversation with Pascal Rousseau, Professor of Contemporary Art History at Paris I-Panthéon Sorbonne University.

Since his debut in the 1980s, and then becoming one of the youngest winners of the Lion d'Or at the Venice Biennale in 1997, Fabrice Hyber has enjoyed growing attention on the international scene. He has exhibited in many prestigious institutional venues in France and abroad. In 2018, the artist was elected a member of Académie des Beaux-Arts.
