Lecture: ‘4.543 billion and abstract social nature’, Jornadas Eremuak, AzkunaZentroa, Bilbao, 17–19 October 2019

Latitudes will participate in the yearly eremuak conference programme 2019. Taking as a reference point one of the ten galleries in their 2017 group exhibition '4,543 billion. The matter of matter' at the CAPC musée d'art contemporain, Latitudes will analyse the notion of abstract social nature coined by environmental historian and geographer Jason W. Moore through the work of exhibiting artists Lara Almarcegui, Pep Vidal, Lucas Ihlein and Amy Balkin.

Lecture in the context of the group exhibition ‘The Coming World: Ecology as the New Politics 2030–2100’, Garage Museum of Contemporary Art, Moscow, 7 November 2019.

Latitudes will present a paper as part of the exhibition's extensive public programmes. Curated by Snejana Krasteva and Ekaterina Lazareva, the exhibition ‘The Coming World: Ecology as the New Politics 2030–2100’ currently occupies the entire Museum and presents historical and new works by over 50 Russian and international artists — from a 16th-century tapestry to works using VR.
