The project How Much Fascism?, initiated by the WHW in 2011, engages with the claims articulated in Slovenian philosopher and political activist Rastko Mocnik’s collection of texts, published in 1995 under the same name.
This group exhibition will investigate the forms of organized, legislated intolerance pervading the contemporary public sphere as points of suspension between democracy and one of its antonyms, fascism.
What, How & for Whom/WHW started a project dealing with contemporary manifestations of fascism with the exhibition Details, presented at the Bergen Kunsthall in 2011. The research develops through a two-year project entitled Beginning As Well As We Can (How Do We Talk About Fascism?). A series of activities scheduled between 2012–2014 will be realized in collaboration with Tensta Konsthall, Stockholm, and Grazer Kunstverein, Graz.
