In connection with the exhibition Shubigi Rao / Pulp I–IV, which opens on March 14 at Bildmuseet, additional talks with the artist will be held at other locations besides the events at Bildmuseet. At Accelerator, the conversation is organized in collaboration with PEN Sweden.
Artist Talk by Shubigi Rao Wednesday, March 19, 18:00–19:30 Language: English Free entry, no registration required Accelerator, Stockholm
In this talk, Shubigi Rao will introduce Pulp—the artist’s decade-long project so far about censorship, destruction of books, assaults on literacy and libraries, erasure of women’s voices, and loss of languages. With her conviction that “paper will trump rock”, Rao examines the history of cultural obliteration while also sharing strategies of survival and resistance through her books, films, drawings, and photography.
With Shubigi Rao, Hanna Nordell (Managing Director, Swedish PEN) and Anca Rujoiu (Curator, Bildmuseet).
