What can art do to bring visibility to places across the city? In conjunction with Nobel Week Lights, join us for a panel discussion exploring art’s capacity to transform how we perceive and engage with urban spaces.
Lara Szabo Greisman, Co-Founder and Festival Director of Nobel Week Lights, and Edi Muka, Curator at the Public Art Agency Sweden (Statens konstråd), both work with temporary public art installations. They will share examples of the many forms art can take in public spaces and discuss the impact it can have on our relationship with places throughout the city.
