NO BROW / Popular Culture and Politics in Contemporary Swedish Video Art
Tuesday, November 20, 2012 from 7-9pm
In No Brow we take a look at a number of films that approaches the notion of popular culture as an artistic and pedagogical tool. Focusing on the political potential within the work itself, the pieces presented in No Brow address a variety of subjects.
During the evening the curator of the program, Johan Norling, will also present his work at Stockholm based platforms Top Nice and Svarta Hålet.
Participating artists:
