Art, Populism and the People<\/b><\/h1>\n

May 12, 2015<\/h2>\n

Lecturer: Dr. Simon Sheikh<\/p>\n

\n

In his presentation at Translocal Institute, London-based theorist Simon Sheikh addresses crucial issues around art and democracy that are of critical relevance to the social and political context of artistic production at a time of global uncertainty.<\/p>\n

Dr. Simon Sheikh is a curator and theorist. He is Reader in Art and Programme Director of MFA Curating at Goldsmiths, University of London. He is a correspondent for Springerin, Vienna, and a columnist for e-flux Journal, New York. He is currently a researcher for the on-going Former West project, initiated by BAK in Utrecht, and working on a book about art and apocalypse entitled Its After the End of the World.<\/p>\n

This presentation is realised within the framework of Anthropocene Response, a series of guest lectures at Translocal Institute that provide a platform to consider changing paradigms of social, economic and cultural thought in the light of the awareness of ecological crisis. In addition to presenting their current research, speakers are invited to reflect on the implications of the anthropocene for their own professional trajectories.<\/p>\n

Curators: Maja & Reuben Fowkes<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
