Live Stream Public Talk
To coincide with her RESET exhibition at Jupiter, Alberta Whittle joins Annalee Davies for live-streamed in conversation hosted by Nicky Wilson.
Part of RESET & RISE: a summer season of residencies, broadcasts and artist-led projects at Jupiter Artland.
The triple-crises of 2021 – the climate emergency, the pandemic, and the Black Lives Matter Movement for social justice – have created a new learning landscape for artists and citizens alike. In this future, we are offered a choice to carry with us the burden of unsustainable practices, or to break with the past, and to imagine our world anew. This summer, the landscape of Jupiter will host a season of exhibitions, artist-led projects, residencies, broadcasts and international collaborations arranged around the theme of ‘reset and rise’ – rethinking our relationship to the land, ecology, social justice and mapping out possibilities for the future. This Reading Room introduces you to artists and artist-led initiatives leading the programme, which will culminate in November 2021 to coincide with Scotland’s hosting of the COP26 Climate Conference in Glasgow.
RESET will be a part of Edinburgh Art Festival 2021. RESET was co-commissioned and co-produced by Frieze and Forma.
The live conversation will be held on Instagram Live – to access the conversation head to @jupiterartland at 5pm, if you cannot access instagram a recorded version of the talk will be sent to all attendees after the broadcast.
