Respondent Series | Panel Discussion with Sameer Farooq, Jeanne Randolph and Jared Stanley

Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art | 1, 460 Portage Ave | Winnipeg MB | Canada

As part of Plug In ICA’s Respondent Series for the exhibition, Days of Reading: beyond this state of affairs, we present a conversation between, prominent cultural theorist and writer, Jeanne Randolph, and Toronto-based artist and designer, Sameer Farooq, along with Farooq’s collaborator, poet and artist, Jared Stanley, moderated by our Director Jenifer Papararo.

For the exhibition Jeanne Randolph, and Sameer Farooq and Jared Stanley activate collections through ficto-criticism (Randolph) and speculative museums (Farooq and Stanley). Centered on these methodologies, their public discussion will focus on the convergence and practice of their distinct approaches to forms of writing and display in relation to consumerism and historical narratives.
