The art world in Sweden and around the world is shaped by political decisions, economic conditions, a transformed market and changing institutions.
In the Royal Institute of Art’s (KKH) conversation series Conversations on the Conditions of Art, a variety of actors – from artists and curators to gallery owners, opinion leaders and institutional leaders – come together to seek to capture voices and insights about the role of art in a time of change.
The talks will be moderated by Sanne Kofod Olsen, Vice-Chancellor at KKH.
Sanne Kofod Olsen and Lars Nittve, art critic, curator and former museum director, will meet for a conversation on 4 March.
Warmly welcome to attend!
Date: 4/3
Time: 16.00
Place: The Royal Institute of Art, library
