11AM – 1PM – Traversing the Event
Consequential events such as epidemics, catastrophes, or war — all demand a sudden, entirely new way of being in the world. But how do we move forward and integrate a new reality from this vulnerable state? Art in its engagement of ideas, has the potential to transform our understanding of these meaningful events — as a form of remembrance, transcendence or creation.

2PM – 4PM – Shifting the Frame
Performance, like the Event, can create new paradigms with which we inhabit our reality and thus creates its own world. The nuance of construction and artifice through performed gestures reveals a potential for art and artists to maneuver this complex terrain.
