On Spectacle Interventions with 421 Resident Alumni

“This is not a talk, and it is not spectacle for spectacle’s sake. It is an intervention (or perhaps, a contemplation) inviting audiences to negotiate artists and their practices more critically and dynamically, to engage with them, and to enter into dialogue with them” (the nearest event category we have is ‘workshop’).  Former 421 residents UT-R Studio, Tamara Barrage, and Moza Al Mazrouei guide participants on a journey through 421’s campus, pausing at junctures for “interventions that blur the lines between spectator and spectacle, performer and viewer … These encounters invite us to reconsider how we engage with art, space, and one another”. The evening includes a “light dinner”.
