Ethnographic Laboratory Association in Warsaw and the INSPIRE project at Peace Research Institute in Oslo invite you all to:
How does war, political violence and displacement shape artistic practice? – a roundtable discussion with artists and researchers
Wednesday, the 11th of October, 2023, 18:00-20:00
Duży Pokój, ul. Warecka 4/6, 00-040 Warszawa (entrance from ul. Kubusia Puchatka)
A roundtable discussion with international artists and researchers participating in the INSPIRE Open Space exploring inspiration, motivation and artistic creation of artists engaged with themes of war, conflict, displacement and social (in)justice. How do such contexts shape creative and artistic practice? How do artists coming from such experiences negotiate their own public and private engagements and responses? How do such experiences open up but also constrain artistic practice? How is art narrating, documenting, responding and transforming such contexts and experiences?
Event will be held in English.
INSPIRE Open Space for new encounters, reflections, and co-creation: exploring inspiration, motivation and artistic creation of artists engaged with themes of war, conflict, displacement and social (in)justice. This is part of an Open Space of the INSPIRE project examining artistic inspiration, creative practice and imagination in the context of war, conflict, exile and oppression carried out by Kasia Grabska at the Peace Research Institute in Oslo. The first Open Space took place in Geneva in September 2022. Visual artist Anna Konik and researcher Kasia Grabska co- organize the second Open Space in Warsaw, at Duzy Pokoj and Teatr Komuna (8-12 October 2023) with artists who have lived experiences of exile, displacement, violent conflict or political persecution and whose creative practice relates to these themes. Through their personal experiences and methodologies invited artists will create a hybrid, multi-layered perspective on the creative space of exile and political oppression.
Join us to meet and learn more about these fascinating artists and their guests, their personal and creative trajectories and debating their personal and public commitments during an event at Duzy Pokoj on Wednesday, the 11th of October 2023.
