KEYNOTE LECTURE (6:00 – 8:00 PM)
LOCATION: URBANSPACE GALLERY
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2014 (TICKETS AVAILABLE HERE)

Elke Krasny
Elke Krasny is a curator, cultural theorist, and writer. She is a Senior Lecturer at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, Austria.

Her theoretical and curatorial work is firmly rooted in socially engaged art and spatial practices, urban epistemology, post-colonial theory, and feminist historiography. In her conceptually driven and research-based curatorial practice she works along the intersections of art, architecture, education, feminism, landscape, spatial politics, and urbanism. She aims to contribute to innovation and debate in these fields through forging experimental post-disciplinary alliances between research, teaching, curating, and writing.
