About this Event
In contemporary art, the production of ideas increasingly takes place across multiple forms: artworks, exhibitions, and writing. Artists frequently engage philosophical, historical, and political questions as part of their practice, while curatorial work has developed into a mode of research that organizes and activates these inquiries in public space.

Following this introduction, the conversation on the nature of artistic and curatorial research today will feature Lauren Cornell, Trevor Paglen, and KJ Abudu.
