Bronwyn Katz and Kapwani Kiwanga in Conversation
About the Program
The Arts Club’s fall exhibition Upkeep overlaps in both time and topic with The Renaissance Society’s exhibition Nine Lives (opens in new window). Both group shows partake in the Feminist Art Coalition (opens in new window), a national initiative to explore the nuances of what feminisms might mean today. As part of this initiative we are bringing together an artist from each exhibition to converse about areas of convergence or departure.
South African sculptor and visual artist Bronwyn Katz (opens in new window) talks with Paris-based Canadian artist Kapwani Kiwanga (opens in new window) about their related approaches to materials and shared interest in revisiting histories or stories from the past. An apropos pairing, the two dissect their engagement with sculpture, materials, storytelling, and revisited histories.
