Visual Activism l Research Posters
Thursday, September 26
United States: 10am HDT, 1pm PDT, 2pm MDT, 3pm CDT, 4pm EDT
Europe: 21:00 GMT Australia: Friday, May 17, 6:00am AEDT
For this Zoom event, we will hear from four of our members about the potentials of research posters, an important medium to present scientific information as well as artistic work in the context of conferences and symposia. This easily transportable means of visual communication, which is often honored with prizes for best design, can be considered an art form in its own right. In this presentation, we will look at examples, methods, and opportunities for the research poster format and discuss how it can be used as an instrument of interdisciplinary dialogue, project documentation, artistic expression, and even activism.
Alexandra Toland, Saskia Jorda, Luc Biscan-White, Rhonda Janke
This event is free for members + one guest. $5 for non-members. All participants MUST REGISTER.

For
these sculptures, Hutton built a nesting box and placed a knitted
‘jumper’ into each box. A blue tit family then built their nests
inside the jumpers. This collaboration addresses the
question: What is it to care for one’s surrounding environment? The work
is a provocation around conservation and the nature of engagement. www.eileenhutton.com
