Exhibition Histories – Luca Frei - AVLYST

Avlyst

Seminaret er avlyst på grunn av situasjonen der helsemyndigheitene har innført sikringstiltak for å unngå spreiing av smitte frå Korona-viruset.

The talk will focus on Luca Frei’s approach as an artist to strategies of display. Bringing examples from exhibitions such as bauhaus imaginista, curated by Marion von Osten and Grant Watson, 2018-2020, and Migration: traces in an art collection, curated by Maria Lind and Cecilia Widenheim, 2019-2020, he will expand on his research and method of working with display, of unpacking existing material, extracting concepts and images and amplifying them in space, of bringing topic, contexts, and artworks in dialogue with each other.
