The classical/historical avant-gardes generated specific forms, which were on the one hand aesthetic manifestations of single avant-gardist groupings and movements; on the other hand they had implied political meaning. In Futurism these forms were the serata, and in Dadaism soirees. In the visual arts, one can highlight montage and collage as well as geometrical abstraction; in literature it could be the manifesto; in theater and film the inter- and transmedia experiment. The neo-avant-garde emerged e.g. with concrete poetry, installations, expanded cinema and with the global genre of event-based art (performance, action art, event, happening, etc.), whose success story can be traced until today.
The focal point of the individual lectures will be the analytical monitoring of interdisciplinarity and formal interdependency - essentially, the border-crossing of the avant-garde. The term and the definition of "avant-garde" itself will be debated, as well as the borders and junctures between the arts. In the diversity and temporary existence of forms lies the manifestation of the aesthetics, which we tend to call "avant-gardist". With the lectures we also want to reflect on the social and cultural influence of the avant-garde through political intention, positioning and effect of forms.
