The aesthetics of ambiguity understanding and addressing monoculture Haq, Nav author, editor. Gielen, Pascal author, editor. text bibliography ne 2020 monographic eng print 238 pages : illustrations ; 21 cm. In today's globalised world, terms such as multiculturalism and pluralism assume a shared culture with shared values and convictions about openness, democracy, and equality. This in turn can be seen as a monoculture of views and attitudes. Yet being able to deal with differences, paradoxes, and ambiguities results from a learning process and does not just happen on its own. Art has played a pivotal role in this process since the dawn of modernity, and artists in particular have the ability to play with cultural conventions. This book gives a platform to art and artists who dare to challenge the rules of our globalised, monocultural society, and explores their successes and failures.
