<Immune Nations> Opening Reception in Trondheim, Norway

Joint Opening Reception with 2017 GLOBVAC Conference at Galleri KiT, Trondheim Academy of Fine Art, NTNU.

“We want to bring into cross-disciplinary collaborations the very capacity, a certain power of art:

to make the invisible visible
to increase complexity by thinking outside the box and reading against the grain or:
on a more conceptual level, reiterate the question: Can social, ethical or aesthetic logics alter technical capacities?”

— Florian Schneider, Head of Trondheim Academy of Fine Art
