Memory Laps: A Conversation with Artist Elana Katz

In the framework of our Shaping the Past event series and with the joint screening of two performance films by Elana Katz, we are presenting Memory Laps: A Conversation with Artist Elana Katz. Social trauma, collective memory, and the historical erasure of oppressed bodies have driven art creation for decades. This discussion will deepen the analysis of Elana Katz’s performance films Aiming for Hopelessness (2021) and Running on Empty (2018), which will be on view in the Goethe-Institut New York’s shop window, at KWADRAT Gallery in Berlin, and online. Registration is required.
