During this session, writer, philosopher, and curator Paul B. Preciado talks about the transformation of gender and sexual politics within the context of neoliberal societies, and about the production of subjectivity as a form of resistance. Currently building a Parliament of Bodies in the context of Learning from Athens (working title), Preciado discusses the need for alliances between artists, activists, and critical thinkers in order to build open forms of an anti-monumental nature within existing institutional ruins.
