Join us for our first DRAF Broadcasts: Live, a conversation between artist Nina Beier and Ned McConnell, curator at DRAF.

About

Danish artist Nina Beier and DRAF curator Ned McConnell will discuss in depth her research, sculptural and performance practice.

This event is part of a series of online conversations, co-hosted by DRAF and Performance Exchange. The webcast talks feature artists, curators and other cultural practitioners engaged in live work.

Please RSVP here https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/draf-broadcasts-live-with-artist-nina-beier-tickets-101808802870

As organisations both being dedicated to performance and event-based art practices, this collaboration is born from the need to keep supporting these practices, perhaps now more urgently than ever. In creating this platform together, we want to share artistic projects and ideas with our audiences, whilst thinking through different cultural infrastructure that works for performance in times of social isolation. We will be announcing these conversations via our digital channels so please do keep an eye on @draf_art or subscribe to our newsletter.

Online event - talk will start promptly after 5pm, Thursday 9 April - event login link will be sent out in advance.
