A Prelude: Practising Duets

As a prelude to The Ignorant Art School Sit-in #4 exhibition Outside the Circle, Cooper Gallery will host the fourth iteration of Practising Duets, a series of trans-disciplinary events organised by The Ignorant Art Schools, a research group of the British Art Network (BAN).

Sharing reflections on knowledge formation, alternative art pedagogies and internationalism charged by feminist solidarity, leading feminist, postcolonial and social art historian Griselda Pollock will be in conversation with Varsha Nair one of the artist-organisers of Womanifesto, a Thailand based women artists’ collective.

The in-conversation is chaired by Sophia Yadong Hao, Director of Cooper Gallery, University of Dundee.

Griselda Pollock and Womanifesto will subsequently participate in the exhibition Sit-in #4: Outside the Circle as part of The Ignorant Art School: Five Sit-ins Towards Creative Emancipation programme at Cooper Gallery.
