presentation Toppled, a book by Florian Göttke
The release of Florian Göttke's book Toppled inspired Stroom Den Haag to invite the renowned Swiss art historian, author and curator Dario Gamboni to give a lecture on 'asymmetrical conflict', a term which has gained greater currency since the intentional destruction of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. The phrase is used to define a situation opposing two parties widely differing in terms of power, legitimacy, means and organisation. Can a correlation be established between the degree of asymmetry of a conflict and the tendency of its 'weaker' party (in conventional terms) to resort to iconoclasm?
