Visionary Lives, Fictionalised Selves and Fictionalising Oneself

Auto-fictions with the methods of projecting oneself onto a larger-than-life scenario (Mangelos' self-fictionalisation and his visionary poetic manifestos; liana Halperin's geological travel documentations and the visions of Artur Zmijewski's protagonist, Lisa), decomposing the thin line between factual and fictive authorship (Hadjithomas and Joreige with the photographer Abdallah Farah) or the instrumentalisation of one’s own artistic position to create fictional institutions (Julius Koller).
