Concert and Panel on Art Politics in light of the russo-ukrainian war
Event description
Event Brief:
In our inaugural project, we are extremely delighted to be joined by 4 leading figures within their field. From electrifying performances of Gabriel Prokofiev’s ‘Howl! For Clarinet and Electronics to Dr. Khabat Abas’ improvisation on her Bombshell Cello, we will then dive into some lively discourse with Dr. Tamsin Alexander and Dr. Franziska Strack centring on the question ‘Where have artists situated themselves in the past in time of political turmoil and how can that inspire us as artists today.’
In light of the world’s inclination to become more and more divided, we sincerely wish that our inaugural project will bring some inspiration to members of the creative arts community and beyond, and inspire more to dedicate their artistic practices to create an impact within our society.
