An event in the context of the key topic "The girl as artist and performer. Worlds of artistic de/subjectivization". Held in English language

As one of the capitals of hysteria, Vienna seems to be particularly suited for a review of the girl theme under new auspices. The
hypothesis of the conference is that the symbolic girl opens the ontological frame within which the ideologemes of trans and
queer movements and those of object-oriented ontology and speculative realism are currently moving.
