Join us for a talk when Krist Gruijthuijsen will share some of his curatorial interests with an emphasis on the formation of artist subjectivity and labour within the wider societal realm. The talk will focus on a handful of his publishing projects, tying in his research on minor histories of artists’ conscious withdrawal from art, their bypasses to other worlds as well as fictional lives of artists, which form important anchors in his exhibition-making.

Krist Gruijthuijsen is Director of Grazer Kunstverein and Course Director of MFA at Sandberg Institute, Amsterdam.

“Relatively young, frustrated office lady, buried under paperwork, trying to understand the world through the OED, seeks professional help.  Looking for kind, experienced organisers and linguisticians for companionship and stimulating conversations. Meet me on 18, 25, 26 April.  Email me at intotheworb@gmail.com.”

As part of the public program for Days push off into nights, artist Ho Sin Tung will hold three intimate consultation sessions where Ho and Christina Li invite Michelle Wong (Sat, April 18, in English), Lee Chi-Leung (Sat, April 25, in Cantonese) and Wong Wai Yin (Sun, April 26, in Cantonese) to discuss the bittersweet and solitary moments of research, writing and representation.

All sessions will start at 3:30 pm. Spaces are extremely limited, so please sign up at intotheworb@gmail.com.

On Sunday, April 26, the last day of the exhibition, Ho’s session will be followed by a screening of the film “News from Home (1977)” by Chantal Ackerman.  More information on the screening to follow.
