Symposium: The Art of Light and Space – Day 1

Описание: In June 2022 Copenhagen Contemporary and the Department of Arts and Cultural Studies at University of Copenhagen hosted a two-day international symposium focusing on the American Light and Space movement and its impact on European contemporary art.

The conference was held in conjunction with the exhibition Light & Space at Copenhagen Contemporary, which for the first time in Europe brought together a rich array of artworks from the American art movement known as Light and Space as well as contemporary European artists.
The symposium Light, Space and Contemporary Art wished to highlight the groundbreaking practices of artists within the Light and Space movement and discuss their legacy in relation to younger contemporary artists.
Lectures were given by Lita Albuquerque, Dawna Schuld, Elisabeth Gollnick, Matthew Simms, Mónica Bello, Elyn Zimmerman, Lucy Bradnock and many others.
