Distribution Forum: Artist Run Initiatives

Testing Grounds Emporium, 438 Queen St

What power dynamics are at play in the distribution of information? How democratic is ‘collective’ knowledge? And how are individuals and collectives disrupting the flow of information?

The Distribution forum series prods, unravels, makes-visible, and excites non-mainstream ways of information sharing. Engaging publishers, editors, and alternative institutions, the series explores active projects in Naarm/Melbourne that question the traditional flow of information.

Join Isabella Hone-Saunders of Seventh Gallery, Sophia Cai of Bus Projects and Beatrice Rubio-Gabriel and Katie Paine of KINGS Artist Run Initiative as we discuss the role of artist run initiatives in knowledge sharing.

Supported by the City of Melbourne.

12pm-5pm, Thursday-Sunday

Melbourne Art Library, Naarm

We acknowledge the Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation as the traditional owners of the land on which we operate, and respect their enduring connection to country. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.
