Art for Lunch with Golboo Amani

Please join the Department of Visual Arts and the Art Gallery of Regina on Friday, October 6th for a talk with visiting artist Golboo Amani. Amani will speak about her art practice from the perspectives of social justice, socially engaged art, and pedagogy. Amani often intervenes in systems that produce knowledge and works in forms traditionally excluded from institutional contexts, including board games. Amani views games as "ready-made" sites for informal pedagogy.

Golboo Amani

Golboo Amani is a multi-disciplinary artist, educator and curator best known for their performance and social practice works. Amani produces sites for aesthetic intervention by utilizing ready-made and familiar social engagements as a point of entry in their practice. Amani’s work examines their relationship to learning by addressing the conditions of knowledge production that render epistemic violence as invisible, insignificant and benign.
