Join leading UBC scholars, artists, curators and critics in a series of noon hour conversations. We invite two prominent, disciplinarily distinct voices into the Gallery to discuss productive intersections of their own work and the current exhibition, followed by a discussion that includes the audience.
In this series, guests will address The Spaces Between: Contemporary Art from Havana, an exhibition that focuses on the social spaces and shared sensibilities of artists in this dynamic but complex city. The Spaces Between–that is, the spaces between the artwork and its reception, between language and truth, and between the actual past and imagined future–includes drawings, paintings, prints, photographs and videos.
