FIRST SUPPER SYMPOSIUM
First Supper Symposium inviterer til symposium om alderisme der kunstnere vil vise refleksjoner over tema og fagfolk skal snakke om årsaker virkninger etc. Eventet finner sted søndag 8. og mandag 9. mai på Club Elsker. Det er et viktig tema for kunstnere som ofte opplever at deres kunst blir oppfattes som utdatert. Inngang er gratis, men ved påmelding må man betale gebyr. Det er også mulig å donere til Helpage som hjelper eldre verden over og nå i Ukraina. First Supper Symposium (FSS) is a collaborative feminist art project, founded by artists and curators Gidsken Braadlie and Lisa Pacini in Oslo, Norway, in 2012. Artist Camilla Dahl joined in 2014. FSS interacts with people from various backgrounds, mainly organizing forums for discussion and exchange on issues of art activism, feminism and political issues in relation to the art world. The slogan is Equal Space, Equal Rights, under which FSS orchestrates meetings between people in unexpected and creative combination. In 2013, FSS organized a three-day symposium, inviting the renowned artist Judy Chicago, noted art historian and Deputy Director at the Getty Institute Andrew Perchuk and Dr. Elizabeth Sackler, founder of the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn Museum, a nexus for feminist art, theory and activism, to Oslo, to talk about gender issues within the art context. In 2014, FSS invited philosophers Judith Butler and Rosi Braidotti to meet with members of the art performance group P***y Riot, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina, under the title Punk Protest Performance – P***y Riot in Perspective. In 2016, FSS is creating three symposia on art activism in Oslo, Prologue 1,2 and 3. "Prologue 1: Art Activism - White Cube vs Public Space" will take place at Cultural History Museum and KORO with the following guests: Juan Puntes, Ted Kerr, Mikkel Bolt, Zanele Muholi, Llewellen Mnungi, Kate Pendry, Pia Maria Roll and Marius von der Fehr. Co-workers in 2014 were curators Ekaterina Sharova, Natalie O'Donnell and Ane Katrine Øverseth Olsen, as well as artist Ksenia Aksenova. In 2016 the co-workers are artists Hanan Benammar and Ksenia Aksenova, as well as media theorist Ragnhild Tronstad. Financial support since 2012:
