On Civicness and participating in public life through art practice

On Saturday 02 October 2021, Contemporary HUM will be hosting its fourth panel discussion, 'On Civicness and participating in public life through art practice', in Berlin. 

Held at Prachtwerk, Berlin from 3:45 pm CEST, the conversation will explore the idea of 'civicness' and how it is tied to social responsibility within a global community, from the perspective of three artists from Aotearoa who are actively taking part in public life through their practice. Guest speakers include Glasgow-based Cat Auburn; Berlin-based Ruth Buchanan; and Warsaw-based Daniel Malone. HUM’s Paris-based Editor Pauline Autet will be moderating.

For HUM’s international audience, the event will be live-streamed, and viewers will have the opportunity to send through questions for the Q&A session at the end of the discussion. Follow HUM on social media for the link. An edited transcript will also be published on Contemporary HUM in the weeks following the event.
