MONOGRAPH PRESENTATION AND TALK – Vera Kox in conversation with Lisa Robertson
In her sculptural work, Vera Kox explores the interconnection between the environment, and human and non-human life forms. She examines the complex inherent properties of various materials and often combines handcrafted ceramic elements with industrial semi-products, merging them into her installations as fossilized hybrids of our modern civilization.
Join a conversation as part of the SENTIENT SOIL exhibition at the Konschthal, between the artist Vera Kox and Lisa Robertson, the author of the text for her new monograph, and Charlotte Masse, the co-curator of the exhibition at the Konschthal. Lisa Robertson is a Canadian poet, essayist, and novelist whose work, beginning in the 1990s in Vancouver, has developed in community and dialogue with artists and their practices. Her most recent books include Anemones: A Simone Weil Project (If I Can't Dance, Amsterdam), the novel The Baudelaire Fractal (Coach House, Toronto; Peninsula, London), translated into Swedish (OEI, Stockholm) and French (Le Quartanier, Montreal), and the poetry collection Boat (Coach House). She received the 2018 CD Wright Poetry Award from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts in New York, as well as an honorary doctorate from Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver. The conversation will be moderated by curator Charlotte Masse.
