The Lecture is part of the series “WATDOEJE?”, (whatareyoudoing?) meeting the work and visions and expectations of six young artists from Groningen. Every month two of them will do a roundtable asking questions like who are you? What are you doing? Why? And for whom? The talk will be accompanied by lots of images and visual explanation showing the context of the origin of the work. The audience will get a special opportunity to participate in the conversation.
The lecture starts at 8 pm, admission 7,50 euro (students with student card 5 euro).
