Press release

This symposium offers an opportunity to delve deeper into the themes of the exhibition “For Children. Art Stories since 1968”. The two-day programme will feature panel dis­cus­sions, performances, and workshops, bringing together participants from around the world to share local and global perspectives on how artists have been addressing children and young audiences since 1968.

How has the growing emphasis on audience participation influenced their artistic practice? To what extent has it shaped the work and self-understanding of art insti­tu­tions worldwide? And what roles do artists and institutions play in creating new spaces and communities today?

The programme is conceived by Lydia Korndörfer with Andrea Lissoni and Emma Enderby, in collaboration with Lars Bang Larsen, Kabelo Malatsie, and Kefiloe Siwisa.
