CRIT #33

Presenters: Giulia Crivellaro, Aaron Ford
Moderator: Angelica Bollettinari

Tuesday 30 January 2024,18:30 -20:30

This is the 33rd CRITs event! Participation as an audience at the event is open to all!

A CRIT is a meeting where artists present their work, ‘offering’ it to a collective critique. The CRIT audience is mandated to observe, trying to immerse themselves as much as possible in the work being presented. The artist briefly introduces the work or project he or she has chosen, after which the discussion is guided by the interventions of those present, who express their point of view on the work, making comments or asking questions and triggering a dialogue with the artist. The core of CRIT is in fact the exchange between artist and audience: CRITS have the value of a collective ritual, and can become occasions to negotiate shared values and meanings. CRITS are based on the idea that reflection with a group of ‘peers’ can enhance the artist’s practice, bringing a degree of objectivity to the highly subjective dynamic of the private creative process. Making art is often a solitary pursuit, and it can sometimes be difficult for an artist to assess whether their work is on the right track, whether the way they are proceeding is bringing them closer to their goals. CRIT is an opportunity for the artist to better understand their artistic practice, their work and themselves.
