organised by Luísa Santos and Brandon LaBelle
Who owns historical artefacts? Is it more important to conserve and display them or to return them to their country of origin? Are they valid targets in warfare? Hear from experts and be ready to contribute your own thoughts. A truly multi-disciplinary approach.
Participants of this Summer School are studying towards a master’s or doctorate and must be attending a university that is a member of the Europaeum network.
Professor Luísa Santos will be moderating one of the paper sessions and giving a lecture on the politics and cultures of silence.
Issue 132 of Espace was just released under the theme "flesh", edited by André-Louis Parré. Luísa Santos contributed with "Between Oceans and Wounds: Notes on Anthropophagic Contemporary Artistic Practices".
“I want to encourage both the artist (and the participant) to use art forms to record and interpret multiple perspectives and develop an understanding that no single story exists.” (Hanna Qadir, Conflict Scientist and Scholar)
For its second edition, in November 2022, the Arts Lab will count on the participation of Ana Pérez-Quiroga. The programme will include an artist talk, studio visits, a project developed with a group of MA students of The Lisbon Consortium, and a solo exhibition at the Galeria Fundação Amélia de Mello in 2023.
