Gracie Hadland, Dan Mitchell
Talk
Thursday, February 8, 2024 6pm
Please join us for a conversation between writer Gracie Hadland and artist Dan Mitchell. Together they will discuss professionalization within the art world and the role of criticism in a system dominated by the market. Drawing upon works in the current group exhibition, Tell Me What You Want, they will address strategies that jest at power and enliven staid dynamics.
Light refreshments will be served.
Please RSVP at mail@belami.info.
