THEMA
Arno Böhler/Susanne Valerie Granzer/Adam Loughnane/Graham Parkes
Kunst und Philosophie im Zwischen der Kulturen.
Ein Emailgespräch
The authors of this article analyse the connection of philosophy and art as disciplines in the form of an email correspondence. Through this exchange they propose the idea that arts-based-philosophy is to be understood as a philosophy that utilises artistic practices to engage in a new sensitive way of thinking. To exemplify their undertaking, they draw examples from philosophical practices of Indian, Chinese, and Japanese philosophy. [HJ]
Georg Stenger
Vom Zum-Tanzen-Kommen des Tanzes
How could dance reinforce the intercultural dialogue? Georg Stenger uses this question to articulate the importance and potential of dance as an intercultural endorser. He systematically explores the multidimensional configurations that constitute dance to show that dance addresses the physical and spiritual elements of various cultural worlds – and thereby allows these cultural worlds to connect on a deeper level.

Christoph Hubatschke
Für eine »Grammatik der stotternden Stille«
Interkulturelle politische Kunst zwischen Immobilität und Bewegungen
In his article, Christoph Hubatschke argues that art and revolution are not only in a constant state of interaction but also inspire each other. For this argument, he presents three figures that emerged through artistic performances in the context of social movements and fights. He goes to show that these figures offer resistance while also being open with the aim of ruling out as little as possible. [HJ]
Sandra Noeth
Den Körper zur Verfügung stellen
Entwürfe eines Kunst-Handelns in Libanon und Palästina
This article focuses on an assortment of artworks that arose from the examination of the situation in Lebanon and Palestine. Sandra Noeth presents an interpretation of these artworks as unique reflections, documents, and fictions on the relationship between art, politics, and society, and as proposals for an artistic practice that places the body at the center. For the author, the experiential nature, performativity, and mediality of a body mean participating in a shared space, experiencing coexistence, and being together, rather than promoting participation in preconceived narratives.

Bettina Bäumer
»Die flüssige Natur der ästhetischen Erfahrung«
Interview
Bettina Bäumer explains in this interview the relationship between art and philosophy in the context of Indian culture. Through different examples, such as Shaivism, she illustrates how not only art and philosophy can be integrated into each other but science as well. [HJ]
R. Sriram
Yoga als philosophische Praxis oder von der Kunst zu leben
Interview
In this interview, R. Sriram provides on overview of yoga as a philosophical practice while delving into important concepts such as asmitā and ahiṃsā. He aims to show that philosophy is not an abstract idea but can also be found in everyday matters, and that reflecting on philosophical questions has direct and practical implications for everyday life. [HJ]
Anjali Sriram
Warum Tanz in der indischen Kultur eine philosophische Praxis ist
Interview
In the form of an interview, Anjali Sriram illustrates the connection between the Indian dance Bhāratanāṭyam and the philosophy of yoga. She also explains the historical background of Indian dance tradition, particularly Indian dance practice, and sheds light on the question of how dance can be understood as a philosophical practice.
