A chance to dive into the world of Animal Studies
Taking inspiration from Donna Haraway's provocations to think with our furry, feathered, scaly kin, this set of short talks and public dialogue among artists and scholars will pose the question of how animals tell stories and what stories they might be tellling. Moving beyond a literary studies approach, this event opens up urgent questions in the time of climate emergency, asking what we can learn from animals and how we might begin to take them seriously as cohabitants but also cocreators of meaning and lifeways.
Researchers Erica Fudge (Strathclyde University) and Hörner/Antlfinger (Academy for Media Arts, Cologne) will be in conversation with illustrator Rebecca Guthrie (author of the artist chapbook
Creature, 2023) to explore some of the entanglements between animal & human lives and cultures.
Copies of Rebecca's book will be available.
Book Launch and Exhibition.
The artist Rebecca Guthrie will be present at the opening on 7 December 2023 at the Goethe-Institut Glasgow to introduce her work.
