Social Sculpture, Mutated

Are social sculptures vulnerable to the crisis of truth and to
the current lack of trust in institutions? Is social sculpture as
subject to transformation as any other art form? Vivian Caccuri,
Rio de Janeiro-based sound artist, has composed a sound piece for
this episode that explores these questions in conversation with
curators Jochen Volz and Thiago de Paula, philosopher Rodrigo
Nunes and artist Cibelle. Combined with her own musical and sound
compositions, Vivian Caccuri offers a dense take on the subject.


Rodrigo Nunes is professor of modern and contemporary
philosophy at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de
Janeiro (PUC-Rio), Brazil. He is the author of Organisation
of the Organisationless: Collective Action After
Networks and of numerous articles in publications such

Atlantic Quarterly, Jacobin, Al
Jazeera and The Guardian.
