Truthifixion

“Truth” has become a much-used term in political communication and mobilisation. It is the reference point of discussions around “fake news,” fact checks, or “alternative truths” on the one hand, and a code word for claims to validity of ideological opinion machines on the other. The social dispute about TRUTH is permeated by diverse interests and ways of life and has implications for art, whose ways of producing truth cannot be completely brought into line with those of science or journalism.

Arne Vogelgesang’s lecture uses selected examples to consider what representatives of the “Wahrheitsbewegung” actually mean or do when they raise the banner of truth – and also questions the confusion about the status of “truth” in the lecturer’s own thinking and actions.
