Master's Thesis at the University of Basrah Explores Post-Ideological Practices in Art
A master's thesis at the College of Fine Arts, University of Basrah, explored post-ideological practices in contemporary art.
The thesis, submitted by researcher Zahraa Qasim Sadiq, aimed to uncover the formal equations and conceptual foundations of post-ideological practices and their applications in contemporary art.
The thesis addressed the theme of post-ideology, which heralded the end of closed intellectual frameworks and moved towards exploring new epistemological possibilities based on pluralism and the deconstruction of central identities.
The thesis concluded that contemporary artworks embody a clear shift from the logic of old ideologies towards deconstructive, post-ideological practices that dismantle central identities and redefine identity as a fluid, non-universal, and non-fixed structure.
