The Art Talks: DANE MITCHELL MELANIE TANGAERE BALDWIN RUTH BUCHANAN 2022

Filmed as part of the 2022 Aotearoa Art Fair Talks Programme ‘The Art Talks’, thanks to generous supported from the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery | Len Lye Centre and Creative New Zealand.

Conversations around equity, sustainability and the ongoing precarity faced by artists have acquired a new urgency in the past two years, as the Covid-19 pandemic has exacerbated already existing difficulties of navigating art’s ecosystem. This talk is an opportunity to hear from individuals who have experimented with models for working differently, against, within and to the side of art’s infrastructures. Having developed projects guided by their own values and committed to foregrounding artists’ voices, we ask: how have you made it work, and what have you learned along the way?

Join Zara Stanhope in conversation with Ruth Buchanan, Melanie Tangaere Baldwin and Dane Mitchell.
