Looms and Language: Stacey de Voe X Paletten Art Journal
Artist talk and double publication release
This event will be held in English and Swedish.
Welcome to an evening where we celebrate language through the warp of the spoken word and the weft of the printed word.
Artist talk:
The evening will begin with an artist talk by Stacey de Voe accompanying her current exhibition Under the Needle’s eye (24.2–31.3) which takes its starting point from a lost textile industry; Kürzel’s Factory (1896–1955) where Skånes konstförening’s premises are located. Her presentation will unravel around several recurring themes within her practice including historicity, labor, collective memory, friendship and thread politics.
Publication 〜 Under the Needle’s eye:
Following the artist talk, de Voe will introduce the publication that coexists with her exhibition. There will be readings by two of the contributing authors Ina Nian and Emil Sandström, followed by a conversation.
Paletten #334:
After a brief interlude, Paletten will take the stage and introduce their latest issue. “Swedish cities are among the most segregated in Europe, but what does this mean for the critical discussion of art?” Paletten issue #334 delves into this inquiry through a collaborative editorial process. Paletten Art Journal is an artistic research based art journal that was founded in 1940.
