»Yes, No, Perhaps« are the most written words in Mary Bauermeister's artworks. Together they stand for the concept of many-valued aesthetics in the German artist's oeuvre - an aesthetic that Bauermeister developed using many-valued logic. Hauke Ohls brings the artist's central groups of works in context with each other as well as with the neo-avant-garde of the post-war period in Europe and the USA. He shows that the development of Bauermeister's art may appear disparate, but her canvas and relief works, drawings and writing pictures, lens boxes and stone pictures are characterized by a reciprocal relationship of combinations and interconnections. Through the ubiquitous use of meta-references, the entire oeuvre ultimately appears as an interconnected assemblage.

Gegenwärtig brechen in verschiedenen Gesellschaften Ikonoklasmen mit neuer Gewalt auf. Angriffe gegen Objekte visueller materieller Kultur und Geschichtszeugnisse bieten Zündstoff für gesellschaftliche Auseinandersetzungen. Sie sind Ausdruck politischer, religiöser, nationaler und identitätsbedingter Konflikte. Selbst die Freiheit der Kunst ist durch Zensur und Cancel Culture bedroht. In Fallstudien aus verschiedenen Regionen der Welt werden zeitgenössische Ikonoklasmen in Kunst, Medien und im Umgang mit dem Kulturerbe in globaler und interdisziplinärer Perspektive einer kritischen Analyse unterzogen. Die Publikation befasst sich mit Angriffen auf Denk- und Mahnmäler, Auseinandersetzungen in der Kunstproduktion und im Museumsbetrieb sowie mit Formen eines medialisierten Ikonoklasmus in der zeitgenössischen Kunst. In many contemporary societies we encounter iconoclasm breaking out with renewed violence. Iconoclastic actions against objects of visual material culture and testimonials of history act as dynamite in the public sphere. They are expressions of political, religious, national, and identity conflicts. Even the freedom of art is threatened by censorship and cancel culture. Based on case studies from different world regions, contemporary iconoclasms in art, media, and cultural heritage are critically analyzed from both a global and an interdisciplinary perspective. Divided into three sections, the book discusses attacks on monuments and memorials, idol disputes in museums and the visual arts, and forms of mediated iconoclasm in contemporary art.
