Conversation 2: The Second Dance - Talking to the Visible

An evening of short films of women artists talking about making work to include: Lubaina Himid, Sonia Boyce, Emma Talbot, Jessica Stockholder and Mary Heilman.

Selected films will act as a starting point for conversations that will explore:

  • attitudes to thinking and making work. 

  • connecting with other artists and why we do it

  • the impact of removing work from the studio to the gallery 

  • what or who inspires us

This is the second public conversation leading up to No Last Dance, a painting exhibition, curated by Helen Baker and Sue Spark, that will be hosted by NCA in Spring 2024. 

The third event will take place on Saturday 17th June 2 - 4pm.

The aim of the conversations is to elicit discussion that may inform the content of the final exhibition.
