About this Event
Reading Group + Guest Lecture by Fahim Amir
Fahim Amir's talk will draw upon his book Being and Swine: The End of Nature (As We Knew It) (2020, Between the Lines), to consider the relationship between humans and non-human animals under capitalism and in the midst of ecological catastrophes and climate change.
Fahim Amir is a philosopher and author living in Vienna. He has taught at various universities and art academies in Europe and Latin America. His research explores the thresholds of natures, cultures, and urbanism; art, design, and utopia; and colonial historicity and modernism. The original German edition of Being and Swine [Schwein und Zeit] received the Karl Marx Award 2018, and was listed by Die Zeit as one of the top 10 non-fiction books recently published. The book was selected by the Frankfurt Book Fair and Goethe Institute as one of the best books of 2019.
