About
Pursuing the question of public space through multiple lenses, Stuart Hall Foundation's Second Annual Public Conversation will centre on two sets of conversations.
The first, between artist Willie Doherty and curator Elvira Dyangani Ose, addresses the question of 'how to share a place' through Doherty's longstanding engagement with the Ireland/Northern Ireland border. The second conversation features a panel including Guardian columnist John Harris; sociologist Michael Rustin; and senior editor, Novara Media, Ash Sarkar. Titled 'Meeting the Crisis: Trump, Brexit, and the Left', it asks what is to be done.
Punctuating the discussions will be interventions and perspectives from a new generation of artists, scholars and cultural activists.
Join the Foundation's mission to catalyse action towards disrupting the status quo and bringing forth more hopeful futures; characterised by social and racial justice.
