"Regardless
who we are and where we come from, autonomy is in the essence of our capacity
to make decisions as individuals, organisations, and societies. In the
realms of war and conflict, struggles for rights, self-achievements, and
artistic and scientific explorations, autonomy is a complex and distinctive
driver for the development of mankind. Throughout history it has referred to
the political independence of the Greek city-states and was a predominant
motivation for the European wars of religion in the 17th century. In the 18th
century, Kant brought it to the centre of theoretical and practical philosophy
debates. During the 19th century, the phrase “art for art's sake” reflected the
Romantic movement's desire to detach art from the stress of rationalism and was
the foundation for the development of abstract art in the 20th century. In the
scientific world of today and tomorrow it will continue to be a major driver in
the development of innovative autonomous."
"Where does our autonomy as individuals, artists and
researchers end and begin? Can the boundaries be drawn so neatly? How does
autonomy relate to contemporary challenges and how we might face them?" Text
