KUNST UND KOMMUNIKATIVE PRAXIS (KKP) Angewandte are now collaborating
on the STIR evening lecture series.
The first lecture will be on Monday 28
October at 18:00 OKP HS1 and we are thrilled to invite Jojo Gronostay @jojogronostay as our guest lecturer.
Bio
Jojo Gronostay is a German-Ghanaian artist. His work deals with questions of identity and representation, platforms, recycling
and the in-between. The viewer is guided through an exploration of the political and economic structures and legacies of colonisation
in Africa.
As seen in his recent contribution to mumok exhibition AVANT-GUARD AND LIBERATION, with platforms such
as DWMC (Dead white Mens Clothes), Gronostay disrupts cycles to examine concepts such as economy or value, as well as the
exchange of people and goods between the two continents.
Gronostay's lecture will be followed by a discussion
moderated by Iketina Danso, Diversity Lead in the Angewandte Office for Diversity, Equal Opportunities and Inclusion.
Location
