Join curator Lynne Cooke and artist Ulrike Müller in dialogue on the impactful legacy of Roma artist and activist Ceija Stojka, on the occassion of the last days of our exhibition Ceija Stojka: Making Visible.
Making Visible features the work of Roma artist, activist, writer, lyricist, and singer Ceija Stojka (1933-2013). Comprising more than sixty artworks, as well as a selection of sketchbooks, archival material, and documentary films made during Stojka’s lifetime, the exhibition explores the fullness of Stojka’s production as a visual artist, centered in her Roma life and heritage. Spurred by the resurgence of extreme right nationalism in Austria and abroad, and by her experiences as a Holocaust survivor, Stojka created works of profound beauty and horror that resonate today in strikingly contemporary terms.
ASL interpreters will be available during this event.
