POSTPONED: Ingrid Pollard: Artist’s Talk

30th April, 2020, 6:00pm to 7:30pm

Free
Greene King by Ingrid Pollard, for Seventeen of Sixty-Eight, BALTIC Artists Award 2019, BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, Newcastle

Artist and researcher Ingrid Pollard works with communities, both historic and contemporary, to explore representation and history with reference to race and difference. Ingrid Pollard uses different photographic processes alongside printmaking, artist books, installation, video and audio to shed new light on important subjects. Following a residency in 2019 this solo exhibition will reveal her responses to the fascinating materials held in the Lesbian archive at GWL. The new works offer a vital challenge to the ongoing marginalisation and erasure of LGBTQ+ history and culture.

Ingrid Pollard: Artist’s Talk, Thursday 30th April, 6pm to 7.30pm

 

Join Ingrid Pollard as she discusses her multi-layered practice and time spent in the Lesbian Archive and Information Centre, a collection that makes up one third of GWL’s overall archive. This event will host the artist in conversation with an invited guest and library audiences.

Find out more about the solo exhibition here and book on to the Exhibition Launch on Friday 24th April here.

Supported by Glasgow International 2020.
