Miscellaneous Information Das Glossar inflationärer Begriffe (von dilettantisch bis virtuos) erscheint begleitend zur Ausstellung „Die Irregulären - Ökonomien des Abweichens“ mit Beiträgen von Mercedes Bunz, Alice Creischer, Karin Harrasser/Aino Korvensyrjä, Christoph Menke, Wolfgang Müller, Nicole Karafyllis, Judith Siegmund, Christine Sun Kim, Kai van Eikels, Jan Verwoert, Uwe Wirth u. a. Das Buch verhandelt Werturteile über Kunst und Arbeit, die eine inflationäre Verbreitung gefunden haben. Anstatt einen Exodus vorzuschlagen, versuchen die Beiträge die Begriffe über abweichende Bedeutungsebenen im Diskurs zu halten – dilettantisch, emotional, genial, kreativ, kritisch, performativ, professionell und virtuos. Das Glossar bildet so ein Begriffsregister der Debatte über künstlerische und Erwerbsarbeit, die mit nahezu denselben inflationär verwendeten Adjektiven geführt wird.
