David Joselit: States of Form: Against Meaning: Feb 4

David Joselit, States of Form: Against Meaning
NYU IFA, 1 East 78th Street
Open to the public; reservation required.
RSVP to IFA.events@nyu.edu with “Varnedoe” in subject line.

As the 2010 Kirk Varnedoe Visiting Professor, Institute of Fine Arts, David Joselt will present three lectures considering how contemporary art responds to the geographical and informational networks of globalization on the one hand and the World Wide Web on the other. States of Form refers to a kind of artwork whose nature is dynamic—whose form literally changes state either through material transformation, temporal reenactment, or spatial dislocation.

Thursday, February 4th, 6PM: Against Meaning
Tuesday, February 16th, 6PM: Governing Images
Wednesday, March 3rd, 6PM: Plug-ins
