Joanna Margaret Paul Talk
Cancelled
Sorry this event is cancelled due to the current COVID-19 Alert Levels.
This illustrated talk expands on an essay in the publication Joanna Paul – Imagined in the context of a room, reflecting on the impact that male-centric perspectives have had on the shape of art history in Aotearoa. Using the career and context of Joanna Paul as a focus, this discussion will consider what our art history might look like if we work to recentre artists who have previously inhabited the margins.
