Healing by making – duodji as a way of life

For this talk Liisa-Rávná Finbog will start by exploring some of the ways in which such healing may be achieved, presenting the potential of learning duodji, customary Sámi handicraft, as a means to not only facilitate the return of traditional knowledge (árbediehtu) and epistemology, but also strenghtens connections to heritage, to ancestors, to kin (fuolkit), to community and to individual identities.

The lows before the highs: Rauschenberg in Italy, 1953

Artist Robert Rauschenberg’s radical objective was to operate “in the gap between art and life”. His work crossed boundaries and recent major retrospectives in London, New York and San Francisco confirm that, 11 years after his death in 2008, this remorselessly innovative figure remains a strong creative influence, especially on young artists. But before his fame became global, one of Rauschenberg's first exhibitions took place in Florence in 1953—and it culminated in a gesture that has become an art legend. British writer and art historian Martin Holman tells the story.

…for a rainy day… A talk by artist Iz Oztat

Istanbul based artist, İz Öztat introduces work produced collectively with Fatma Belkis, BAÇOY KOOP (Printing, Duplication and Distribution Cooperative) and anonymous contributors using mimeograph—a predecessor of the modern photocopier. This contemporary use of mimeograph technology will be contextualised against the current political climate in Turkey and mimeographed printed matter produced by dissident political organizations in Turkey and the artistic underground internationally in 1960s and 1970s.

Nina Rodin // Philosophical Considerations on Art and Science

 
Nina Rodin' Self portrait with two failed projects', 2016

We are pleased to present Philosophical Considerations on Art and Science, convened by Nina Rodin, a contemporary artist who received her Phd in Neuroscience from Oxford University and has professional experience in the neuroscientific research laboratory. Rodin will take attendees on a journey from the glorious complexities of the human brain as understood by neurophysiology today, through to notions of individuality, originality and sincerity in art. Along the way, she will confront some big, persistent questions: What is art? Why does it matter? And how do our responses to those questions inform the public interpretation of art, the art market, the commissioning of artworks, and artistic collaboration?
