Die Gegenwartsgesellschaft zeigt sich im Hinblick auf individuelle und sexuelle Handlungsspielräume als widersprüchlich. Elisabeth Wagner geht dem am Beispiel des Sadomasochismus nach. Anhand von Interviews rekonstruiert sie, wie sich SM-Praktizierende zwischen einem Versprechen sexueller Freiheit und dem fortwährenden Skandalisierungspotential abweichender Sexualitäten konstruieren, positionieren, als Subjekte konstituieren und um eine anerkannte Identität ringen. Die Studie leistet einen empirisch fundierten Beitrag über Prozesse der (Selbst-)Normalisierung und geht damit über bisherige überwiegend theoretisch argumentierende Analysen hinaus

Die Gewerkschaften suchen nach einem neuen Profil, das den Hang zur Individualisierung mit den traditionellen Werten Solidarität und Einheit verbindet. Der Beitrag fragt, wie sich das Schöpferische an der Individualität aufspüren läßt und mit welchem Nutzen für wen. Dazu werden unternehmerische und gewerkschaftliche kulturelle Aktivitäten miteinander verglichen und eine "zumindest programmatisch manifeste Parallelität im Kulturverständnis der gesellschaftlichen Kontrahenten" festgestellt. Ihre jeweiligen Motive zum Kulturengagement werden analysiert und Anregungen für die Praxis, etwa die Kulturseminare der Gewerkschaften, abgeleitet. (pbb)

Special Issue on the Material Image. Affordances as a New Approach to Visual Culture Studies. Art Style | Art & Culture International Magazine Editor-in-Chief and Creative Director: Christiane Wagner Co-Editor for this Special Issue: Elisabeth Günther Senior Editor: Martina Sauer For more information about the board, please click on Editorial Team and Art Style Magazine's Scientific Committee Art Style | Art & Culture International Magazine is an open access, biannual, and peer-reviewed online magazine that aims to bundle cultural diversity.

Thus, there are different forms of visual expression and perception through the media and environment. The images relate to the cultural changes and their time-space significance—the spirit of the time. Hence, it is not only about the image itself and its description but rather its effects on culture, in which reciprocity is involved. For example, a variety of visual narratives—like movies, TV shows, videos, performances, media, digital arts, visual technologies and video game as part of the video's story, communications design, and also, drawing, painting, photography, dance, theater, literature, sculpture, architecture and design—are discussed in their visual significance as well as in synchronization with music in daily interactions. Moreover, this magazine handles images and sounds concerning the meaning in culture due to the influence of ideologies, trends, or functions for informational purposes as forms of communication beyond the significance of art and its issues related to the socio-cultural and political context. However, the significance of art and all kinds of aesthetic experiences represent a transformation for our nature as human beings. In general, questions concerning the meaning of art are frequently linked to ...
