Die Untersuchung geht der Frage nach der Vereinbarkeit unterschiedlicher ekklesiologischer Konzeptionen innerhalb der Kirche von England im 19. Jahrhundert sowie den daraus erwachsenden Chancen und Grenzen fur den heutigen oekumenischen Dialog nach. Die jeweiligen Positionen werden zunachst rekonstruiert, auf ihre Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten hin analysiert und im Anschluss daran daraufhin befragt, inwiefern es eine inhaltliche Grundlage fur ihre Einigung als Teile der einen Kirche von England gibt. Abschliessend wird anhand oekumenischer Basisdokumente der Gegenwart der inhaltliche Niederschlag der einzelnen Konzeptionen im Blick auf die Verwendung unterschiedlicher ekklesiologischer Paradigmen im Dialog untersucht. So lasst sich zeigen, wie hierbei Elemente aller Positionen funktionalisiert werden, ohne dass es zu einer echten Vermittlung zwischen den verschiedenen Grundausrichtungen kommt. Die intensive Auseinandersetzung mit dem anglikanischen Kirchenverstandnis des 19. Jahrhunderts dient damit uber die Diskussion der Implikationen fur die moegliche innere Einheit der Kirche hinaus als Grundlage fur einen Einblick in die Konsequenzen der damaligen Differenzen fur den oekumenischen Dialog der Gegenwart.

The artists featured in this book approach the inner self through a variety of media. The work of Njideka Akunyili Crosby comprises vibrantly patterned paintings on paper that negotiate the complex cultural terrain of a life formed between two worlds: her adopted home in America and her native Nigeria. Inspired by photography, fashion, architecture, and design, as well as her own family history, Akunyili Crosby's works often feature domestic spaces that function as physical, conceptual, and emotional points of arrival and departure. Conversely, the Portuguese sculptor Leonor Antunes focuses on migration and the transformation of form and ideas beyond temporal and geographical spaces. The starting point for her elegant site-specific sculptures is the exploration of art, design, and architectural history. Adriana Varejao addresses the colonial history of Brazil in her visceral sculptures and paintings. She often deploys the motif of the wall, the boundary between inside and outside, in her work. The omnipresence of the past also colours the work of trained stage designer Henrike Naumann, whose immersive installations engage with the history of East-West German relations, as well as contemporary instances of right-wing ideology. Naumann explores the mechanisms of radicalisation and explores how they manifest themselves in space. Taken together, the works offer a radical and innovative formal language that positions interiority as both political and aesthetic.

“I WORK BETWEEN THE CRACKS, WHERE THE VOICE STARTS DANCING” To say that Meredith Monk is an outstanding singer, com poser, choreographer and filmmaker says a lot and yet too little. Monk works seamlessly across disciplines—pushing the boundaries of music, theater, dance, video, and installation, and is considered a pioneer of site-specific perfor mance. At the center of her oeuvre is the suggestive power of the human voice: the body becomes a resonating space for a universal language for which there are no words. Monk was the first artist to create a performance for the rotunda of the Guggenheim Museum, she performed in public car parks and on opera stages. This catalogue presents the first career encompassing, in-depth analysis of her work. Featuring never-before-pub lished archival material, musical notations, drawings, and photographs, as well as an insightful conversation with the artist, the essays underscore Monk’s lasting influence and affirm the relevance of her work for the present.
