BIPOC* Artist Talks and Studio Visits

text

*(I know, the term isn't ideal, and has a specific American heritage, but it's the one that seems most familiar in a Germanic context and so I use it here) This semester we're going to visit artists, studios, project-spaces, exhibitions and institutions, with an emphasis on showcasing/meeting BIPOC* artists/curators. Since many of us don't come from Vienna or aren't familiar with the artists/and spaces here, I hope we will get to know some parts of art scene here little better as well as a sprinkling from the outside. Tutorials: Alongside this will be the option of having individual tutorials. Please sign up if you would like to speak to me (30 mins slot)– brishty.alam@uni-ak.ac.at. If we meet someone along the way that you would like a tutorial with about your work – we will arrange! 15:00–16:00 Individual tutorials 16:00–18:00 Artist talk/studio visit/exhibition tour. 18:00–19:00 Openings LINE–UP /// Thursday 28th April 16:00–19:00 16:00–18:00 Artist talk with DENISE PALMIERI http://www.denisepalmieri.com/ http://www.denisepalmieri.com/about 18:30–20:30 Short film & performance programme at Blickle Kino, Belvedere 21.
