An Aesthetic Approach to Ethical Responsibility // Book Presentation

The book’s author, Monika Leisch-Kiesl, develops an exciting discourse between ethics and aesthetics. She places the work of a contemporary artist (Irena Lagator Pejović) in intertextual dialogue with a work of early Renaissance book art (Christine de Pizan). Both of these authors focus on female city-building. These topics are being explored in a discussion between the author and the artist and also including Elke Krasny, who brings into play the feminist concept of care-ethics and raises the question of artistic response-ability in the 21st century.
