Join Judith Leemann and Shannon Stratton, guest co-curators of Gestures of Resistance for a discussion about their ongoing exploration of the relationship between handicraft, labor and performance. Through an informal dialogue, Leemann and Stratton will discuss the design of the exhibition as a continually developing installation and how each artist's project will transform the Museum into a workspace. Viewing craft as a methodology and a fulcrum by which community and current cultural conditions can be understood, Leemann and Stratton's focus on craft actions provides a critical focus for the examination of contemporary visual practices.

Free and open to the public.
