FALL 2025. THINK DANGEROUSLY
What does it mean to think dangerously in the 2020s? To think critically Subversively? To take risks? To not be afraid to define yourself? In relation to what, and from which positions? The world of art and literature hasn’t even had time to react to the pressures of so-called cancel culture or woke culture in recent years, and yet in some (until recently still liberal) countries it is already becoming subject to a different kind of censorship – one that is dangerously reminiscent of the authoritarian regimes of the past. Technology, including artificial intelligence, is also playing a new role. The list of “banned” books is growing in many countries, and artistic institutions are finding themselves under pressure. Is the voice of art gradually being reined in under the onslaught of a changing world? How are artists, writers, filmmakers, curators, and other creators responding to its demands? Is self-censorship having an impact on their work? If thinking, creating, and writing dangerously means thinking freely, just how free are contemporary art and literature and its creators? And what about us, their audience?
These are questions for FALL 2025 and its guests.
Discussions, talks, readings. Meetings with authors, experts, and artists. Interdisciplinary workshops and guided tours of exhibitions. Ideas. Experiences. Discoveries.

To create today is to create dangerously. Any publication is an act, and that act exposes one to the passions of an age that forgives nothing. – Albert Camus
Créer aujourd’hui, c’est créer dangereusement. Toute publication est un acte et cet acte expose aux passions d’une ère qui ne pardonne rien. – Albert Camus
