Mobilizing Citizenship: The Hyper Backdrop with Benedetta Crippa
Project
September – September 2019
Plenary Beauty is a performative talk by Benedetta Crippa for Kunsthall Stavanger on the many forms sustainability can take within visual work.
“As we collectively recognise the urgency of radically rethinking the ways we relate to the environment and ourselves, we are also called to reflect on how visuality can contribute to harmonious co-existence.
How can sustainability unfold through visual work and our visual surroundings? What questions on visuality we can investigate, and act upon? Proposing an expanded view of sustainability, the talk unfolds through an exploration of form, visions and methods for a plenary beauty – one that celebrates, and responds to complexity.”
The talk was part of the program Mobilizing Citizenship.
Curator: Kristina Ketola Bore
