It seems that the sharpest, most tender thought, arises from rifts. It seems that in such states the very act of thinking finds its pure and urgent form. Yet how can one think not only out of time but also out of (a) place? What place? What should we read now, what must we read here?

In the scope of the study group, we will read together actively and critically in six potential location-making. We will move across a nearly endless scale of time; think about theological and concrete places alike; read from a small place, from a large place, from a different place.

We will think together about what can the artistic act be in light of and against the force of location.

The group will be led by Zohar Elmakias, an anthropologist and author, a postdoctoral fellow at the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute and the Resident Thinker at the CCA.
