Mudam (Auditorium)
Artist talk in the framework of the exhibition Lubaina Himid & Magda Stawarska: Nets for Night and Day. Moderation : Florence Ostende
In this special event, artist Lubaina Himid CBE RA discusses how visual art offers a distinct mode of storytelling – one that affords insights into hidden historical narratives. For over four decades, Lubaina Himid’s art has sought to create conversations with audiences.
In this illuminating talk, the artist discusses this approach of storytelling as well as her inspiration – from her grandmother MaShulan’s kangas, British pattern and textile, her affinity for opera, through to her inspired engagement with the work of artists such as late English painters, William Hogarth and James Tissot, sketching out her own strategies of response and interpolation. - Biography of the artist
