Thursday November 4th: Fionn Meade in Conversation with Kerstin Bratsch

Kerstin Brätsch’s practice moves fluidly between mediums and between individual and collective practice. Brätsch's installations feature large oil paintings and three-dimensional units, such as magazine and poster racks. She blurs the divisions between traditional media. Posters and zines both advertise and remix corresponding paintings. She is the co-founder of Das Institut, a quasi-commercial 'import/export agency.'

Brätsch currently lives and works in both Hamburg and New York.

Fionn Meade is Curator at SculptureCenter in New York. Recent independent curatorial projects include Degrees of Remove: Landscape & Affect, co-curated with Sarina Basta at SculptureCenter, NY; Entr’acte, a group exhibition at the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College, NY: and Bivouac, a guest-curated exhibition at Vox Populi, Philadelphia, PA. He received his MA from the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College, and holds an MFA in Creative Writing from Columbia University. His critical writing appears in Artforum, Bidoun, BOMB, Parkett, and The Fillip Review, among other publications.
