BODIES OF KNOWLEDGE  – SEASON 11 : EPISODE 2

PLEASE JOIN US FRIDAY DEC. 1, 2023   5PM
(SUB) STUDENT UNION BUILDING – THEATER, NMHU

The artists in “Bodies of Knowledge” are expert investigators — exploring new fields with excitement and curiosity, discovering new ways of understanding ourselves, and developing new methods of inquiry that expand our vision of the world. Featuring Tauba Auerbach, Guerrilla Girls, Hank Willis Thomas, and Anicka Yi, this hour follows three artists and a collective as they explore varied systems of sensing, representing, and interpreting that shape our perceptions. In their practices, these artists push against the normative boundaries that typically define expertise. They create their own fields of study and invite collaborators and consultants with backgrounds in art, music, science, technology, mathematics, political action, and more into their studios. Their works address what is to over looked, underestimated, and misunderstood, asking audiences to pay closer attention and establishing new grounds to do so. These artists create bodies of knowledge in their pursuit of deeper truths, and they divulge their findings through their artistic practices. 

This event is presented in collaboration with Art21, a nonprofit global leader in art education, producing preeminent films about today’s leading visual artists & education programs that inspire creativity worldwide.
