Artist and educator Joe Scanlan will present a commissioned talk in conjunction with Heimo Zoberning: chess painting. In his talk he will discuss Heimo Zobernig’s previous work with language, and conversations with the exhibitions’s curator. Scanlan’s work looks at architecture and design, art history and language, politics and persona, undercut with dark humor and institutional critique.
