Abstract

Which similarities can be found between two such seemingly different projects as the “learning plays” (Lehrstücke) Bertolt Brecht published in the period 1929-1934 and the contemporary punkrock-band Honningbarna? Most striking, perhaps, is the strong emancipatory element, a desire to develop the arts as a modus operandi for radical social change. By comparing the different strategies held by the two projects concerning the abolition of the division between performer and audience, participatory approaches in aesthetic production and strategies to explore yet unnamed relational experiences, the article gives aesthetic issues penned by Gregory Bateson, Jacques Rancière and Nicolas Bourriaud a spesific foundation in a Nordic contemporary practice.
