Gisela Febel

“‘Contradiction is the prison of difference‘ writes the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze. Worlds of Contradiction asks: how can we explain and describe the world without making it more coherent and systematic than it is?”

Michi Knecht

“Contradiction becomes real where someone names contradiction.”

Ingo H. Warnke
