Uncertainty Seminars gaat verder. Stroom Den Haag presenteert een nieuwe serie van onze experimentele evenementen die twijfel onderzoeken als culturele strategie, en jij bent uitgenodigd.

Uncertainty Seminars: Not Getting It onderzoekt verschillende vormen van weten en begrijpen, evenals het niet kunnen begrijpen of verkrijgen van iets. De kunstenaars, denkers en makers in het programma delen een gevoeligheid voor strategieën van (non)zichtbaarheid, afwezigheid en aanwezigheid – en posities die deze binaire tegenstellingen weigeren en ertussenin bestaan.

PROGRAMMA
Als onderdeel van Uncertainty Seminars: Not Getting It zal een tentoonstelling van Florence Jung te zien zijn op vrijdag 24, zaterdag 25 en zondag 26 mei tijdens de openingstijden van Stroom Den Haag (12:00-17:00 uur).
