Public Talk

James Lingwood, Co-Director of Artangel, London, will survey a range of projects commissioned by Artangel involving a relationship between an artist and a specific site or situation.
Several of these projects were made in London, where Artangel is based, including Steve McQueen's Year 3, made with over 1500 primary schools in London, and Andrea Luka Zimmerman and Adrian Jackson's feature-length film Here for Life, Francis Alys's Seven Walks and Susan Philipsz's Surround Me. The talk will also survey a site-specific project in Reading Prison including 22 artists and writers, and long-term projects by Roni Horn in Iceland and Mike Kelley in Detroit.
