CRIT #40

Presenters: Valeria Carrieri, Laura Phillips

Tuesday 19 November 2024,18:30 - 20:30

This is the fortieth appointment of CRITs! Participation in the event is open to everyone!

A CRIT is a meeting in which artists present their work, “offering it” to a collective criticism. During the CRIT, the public is invited to observe and understand the work that is presented. The artist briefly introduces their work or project, and then the public may intervene, offering their point of view on the work, making comments or questions and triggering a dialogue with the artist. The core of CRIT is the exchange between artist and public: CRITS are a collective ritual, and can become opportunities to negotiate shared values and meanings. CRITS are based on the idea that group discussions can enhance the practice of the artist, bringing a degree of objectivity in the highly subjective dynamic of the private creative process. Making art is often a solitary search, and it can sometimes be difficult for an artist to evaluate if their work is on the right track, if the way they are progressing is approaching their goals. A CRIT is an opportunity for the artist to better understand their artistic practice, their work and themselves.
