Speaking through Masks

with Jan Verwoert

05 Nov 2013

Writer and critic Jan Verwoert has frequently written on the work of Geoffrey Farmer, most recently contributing an essay to the catalogue for Let’s Make the Water Turn Black. In this talk Verwoert peels back the many layers of Farmer’s 'sculpture play', questioning the role of the audience and the presence of material animism in the work.

Jan Verwoert is a contributing editor to frieze magazine and has held position of guest professor of Contemporary Art and Theory at the Academy of Umeå, Sweden, and the Royal College of Art, London and is the author of Animal Spirits ‒ Fables in the Parlance of Our Time, Christoph Keller Editions, JRP, Zurich 2013.
