Tuesday Talk #2: How to think culture in a pandemic society?

12 May 2020
Debate online/facebook
For culture, ‘back to normal’ is still a far horizon, and one can doubt if it ever will get normal again. What do we learn from this existential period?

In between all the virtual exploits of artists, the Tuesday Talks make time for dialogue and reflection. Each week, we talk for one hour about a pressing question with four speakers, each from their own living room. Live on Facebook. Asking questions is possible.

For culture, ‘back to normal’ is still a far horizon, and one can doubt if it ever will get normal again. What do we learn from this existential period? How to use it to the better? What’s necessary to change? Which role to play in this new society and its future, to live with the virus?

Speakers:

Rachida Aziz, opinion maker (Le Space) – Agnes Quackels, co-director Kaaitheater – An Vandermeulen, coordinator Globe Aroma – Christophe Meierhans, performance artist
