EFA Project Space is pleased to host one of a series of events, "Experimental Conversations with Gordon Hall," presented by BOFFO. Discussions between artists (and curators) in proximity to their work, these events seek to explore the performative possibilities of speech in relation to exhibitions, objects, and galleries. Rather than talking "about" artworks, this series experiments with methods of talking with, to, around, through, and because of artworks.
These conversations are part of an ongoing strain of research in Hall’s work concerning the materiality of discourse and its construction by various cultural producers. Drawing particularly on Hall's Center for Experimental Lectures, these talks will offer alternatives to the codified form of the gallery talk, with unique approaches developed by Hall in collaboration with each participating cultural producer.
The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts - Project Space
EFA Project Space, launched in September 2008 as a program of The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts, is a collaborative, cross-disciplinary arts venue founded on the belief that art is directly connected to the individuals who produce it, the communities that arise because of it, and to everyday life; and that by providing an arena for exploring these connections, we empower artists to forge new partnerships and encourage the expansion of ideas.
