It is free and open to all. “Is There No Alternative? For our next discussion group, we are reading cultural theorist Mark Fisher's seminal book on Capitalist Realism. In the text, Fisher problematises how capitalism has successfully presented itself as the only realistic political-economic system. He analyses the development of neoliberal ideology as a particular operation of capitalist realism as a lived ideological framework, using examples from politics, films, fiction, work and education. Delving into the widespread effects of neoliberal ideology on popular culture, work, education and mental health in our contemporary society, Fisher highlights the collective depression we have all lived in for decades. His aim is to grasp the central features of the political-ideological landscape in which we are currently located, and to identify a possible route of exit. “ Find out more and download the text from: https://biennial.com/events/the-liquid-club-6 https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/liquid-club-6-capitalist-realism-by-mark-fisher-tickets-63560198264 Spine: Siegfried Kärcher, JC Leisure & WHXRS – Kazimier Stockroom – 7:30pm Siegfried Kärcher (Frankfurt) Experimental//Ambient//Audiovisual JC Leisure (Liverpool) Experimental//Tape Loops//Drone WHXRS (Liverpool) Industrial//Noise//Experimental https://www.facebook.com/events/2580643865559187/ Joan as Police Woman – Epstein Theatre – 7:30pm Joan As Police Woman releases her first career retrospective “Anthology” May 2019 via PIAS.
