Monday Lectures at the Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen, are pleased to invite you all to the public lecture by artist C. B. Evans.C. B. Evans is an American-Belgian artist living and working in La Plaine Saint Denis. Evans’ practice offers stirring accounts of the governance and rebellion of human emotions and behaviors, in particular as they come into contact with the ideological, physical, and technological structures that aspire to contain them.
The artist’s films, sculptures, tableaux and installations establish a dramaturgy around the dissonance, negotiation and solidarity between subjects as they interface with systems and hyper-objects that often present as unbreachable in scale and nature.
Evans’ work embodies the artist’s interrogative and imaginative approach to major themes and curious tributaries. To date, these have included psychogeographies, the inhabitability of the Internet, the Industrial Revolution, terrorism, dress codes, stem cell research, ideology disguised by architecture, love, live-audience television, reality television, microbial energy sources, ballet, and the immiseration of workers within a society that is motivated by a corporatised ‘good.’
Through these expansive narrative propositions, Evans explores this interface between humanity and the realities it produces.
