6 zu 4: Judith Barry

Judith Barry will be contributing a lecture as part of the interdisciplinary lecture series entitled »6 to 4« organized by the Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design (HfG). The artist was not only one of the first to acknowledge exhibition design as an artistic practice, but she has also reflected on its history in various writings of her own. In her lecture she takes a look at her own interdisciplinary work. Working in fields ranging from architecture, performance, video and film through to installation and sculpture, Judith Barry is among North America’s most versatile of artists. Her writings on exhibition design belong to the cannon of curatorial theory. The lecture will be held in the English language.
