Conversations @ Moore
Moore College of Art & Design’s Graham Auditorium, located at 20th Street and The Parkway Philadelphia, PA 19103

Tuesday March 27th, 2018 - 6:30pm-8pm

With Presenters:

Paul Farber of University of Pennsylvania on Monument Lab
Damon Reaves of the Philadelphia Museum of Art on Philadelphia Assembled
Meg Onli of the Institute of Contemporary Art on Speech/Acts
Rob Blackson of Temple Contemporary on Symphony for a Broken Orchestra

Building on the ongoing Conversations@Moore series that seeks to examine art’s relationship with society, this program will explore four projects that challenged and engaged viewers throughout Philadelphia in the fall of 2017: Monument Lab, Philadelphia Assembled, Speech/Acts, and Symphony for a Broken Orchestra. This conversation will begin with an overview of each project and will continue by exploring points of connection between the work, such as the concept of “the event” as a way to mark and record social history alongside the growing influence of the event production industry on cultural production today. The audience will be invited to engage the speakers in a dialogue about their projects during a question and answer session.
