Thomas Hirschhorn and Jacques Rancière: Artists and Philosophers as Companions in the Love of the Infinitude of Thought

Abstract

Thomas Hirschhorn is an artist who has maintained an engaged approach to politics. His method of working is collaborative and speculative. It has a strong emphasis on community development and intellectual reflection. In this brief introduction I focus on the Bijlmer Spinoza Festival and his ongoing relationship and response to the ideas of the philosopher Jacques Rancière. © 2014, SAGE Publications.
