Charlottenborg Art Talk: Manifestations of Black Disobedience

On Wednesday Aug 26, you can experience curator Mai Takawira in conversation with the artists Jupiter Child, Jeannette Ehlers and Emil Elg.

The focus of the conversation will be the three artists’ practices, which in different ways challenge coloniality and anti-blackness, historically and in a contemporary Danish reality. Together they will discuss issues related to an African diasporic experience, issues such as; how has silence historically been imposed on people of African descent? What violence is the silence trying to hide? And how does one confront it in an attempt to provide redress for the lives that have perished and continue to do so as a result of a white colonial logic?

The event starts at 5 pm with a short welcome by director of Kunsthal Charlottenborg Michael Thouber and spokeswoman for Black Lives Matter, Denmark, Bwalya Sørensen.

There is room for 35 and registration is done by sending an email to booking@kunsthalcharlottenborg.dk (according to the first-come, first-served principle)

The event is livestreamed on Kunsthal Charlottenborg’s Instagram profile.
