Farewell to Thee Panel Discussion
Bill Balaskas discusses his practice with a panel of distinguished curators, scholars and cultural producers. Prompted by the artist’s installation Farewell to Thee, the panel will explore how technology, spectacle and conflict intersect in today’s world.
In addition, Balaskas and his guests will reflect on the role of contemporary art within a public sphere that is increasingly defined by post-truth politics. The panel discussion will be followed by an open Q&A session.
The panel will include contributions from:
- Sofia Lemos, Curator of Public Programmes at Nottingham Contemporary
- Jean Baird, Senior Lecturer in the Theory and Practice of Photography at Nottingham Trent University
- Dr Andrew Futter, Associate Professor of International Politics at University of Leicester
- Dr Jenifer Chao, VC2020 Senior Lecturer in Visual Culture at De Montfort University
