This conference aims to initiate dialogues between philosoph y and the arts. Philosophers and thinkers/ scholars across disciplines of humanities and social sciences will meet with artists and scholars from a wide variety of visual and visual artistic disciplines\, including paintin g\, photography\, and literature\, as well as travel\, dance\, and fashion . Rather than taking art as a mere object of philosophical study\, this co nference will explore the manifold confluences and intersections of philos ophy and art\, exploring how each can become the object of the other and h ow the boundary between the philosophical and the artistic can be sharpene d or blurred. The motive is specifically to explore the “visual” and “move ment” element in art of\, and in everyday life and theorize it – both phil osophically and critically.

\nThis day-long symposium w ill be chaired by Yann Toma and Sandra Laugier. From the organizers:
\nWe have noticed it during the two previous symposia of our program: the pragmatist philosophy and in particular Dewey defends the idea that ae sthetics must not only be considered as the search for truths about art an d its creations but also as what concerns the experience of the persons wi th an artwork (a sensitive and active experience). The reception would thu s be the dynamic experience of an incarnated observer\, acting\, feeling i n his senses and his affects what is the work and what it makes him feel.< br />\n
\nThe political stake of the pragmatist aesthetics is to make sure that the strong aesthetic experiences remain open and access ible to the largest public and become even a «matter of ordinary conversat ion». It is then a matter of thinking about shared experience as a transmi ssion of values\, an important phenomenon for the moral\, political\, “edu cational” reflection of adults» (Cavell 1979\, 1981\, Shusterman\, Laugier 2019\, 2023\, Gerrits 2020). Thus\, this question of pragmatism addresses societal issues that concern all audiences\, not just from a broadcast/tr ansmission perspective. By focusing on experience and agency\, this way of approaching pragmatism involves the cultural audience in a broad way to t he point where it engages mediums such as television and in general digita l cultures.
\nThe concept of Post-Creation\, insofar as it pl ays a form of exteriority to an original Creation\, has all its place in a world where the strong aesthetic experiences remain open and accessible t o a wider public. It is a question of placing the creation beyond what is biased\, in the heart of a form of Third State of the artistic act in char ge of a heuristic and critical potential\, towards a form extracted from t he zone of influence of the world of the art as such. The idea of Post-Cre ation tends towards the universal that would be the fact of conceiving the creation beyond any not institutionalized academism. We will see how a po ssible emulation between the ordinary aesthetic and the shared experience of the Post-Creation is articulated and played\, where the experience of t he creation produces knowledge and transforms what is out of the specific field of perception of the art in so many new acting and reflexive spaces. In that\, the influence of the artistic creation on whole sections of the society\, domains of perception until now inaccessible\, becomes a stake of opening which results from the transformation of a form of ordinary aes thetics in a Post-Creation freed from the aesthetic channels of the contem porary art.

What is a crisis\, though? Can any unnerving moment or peri od be called a crisis\, or are there different dimensions of a crisis to w hich we need to be attentive? Is solidarity possible after experiencing a crisis like Covid-19? Can Buddhism make any contribution to facilitating s olidarity? This presentation explores the meaning and nature of a crisis a nd our responses to it by drawing on modern Korean political thinker Pak C h’iu’s (1909–1949) analysis of crisis and feminist-Buddhist thinker Kim Ir yŏp’s (1896–1971) Buddhist philosophy. By doing so\, this presentation con siders what social\, political\, existential\, and even religious meaning we can draw from our experience of crises\, and what questions these insig hts present to us.

Based on a variety of discoveries and evolutions that are constitutive of modernity (globaliz ation\, Protestantism\, the invention of the telescope)\, modern man has a dopted an Archimedean\, external position vis-à-vis the world. According to Arendt\, this ‘view from without’ has gradually jeopardized the experie nce of a shared world\, endangering the foundation of all meaning-giving a ctivities.
\nMy talk can be considered as a reply to Arendt’s pessim istic account of modern ‘world-alienation’. It builds on the idea that som e of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century (Ernst Jünger \, Georg Lukács\, Ernst Bloch\, Theodor Adorno\, Walter Benjamin\, Aby Wa rburg\, Sigmund Freud) did not equate the loss of a shared world with the loss of meaning. Rather\, the conceptual framework of a substantial part o f early twentieth century German philosophy centers on the exploration of a productive opposition\, negation or fragmentation of the world. From the perspective of these thinkers\, the world’s ‘durability’ (Arendt) is not simply a source of shared meaning since it can be experienced as the mark of its indifference to change and renewal.
