Park McArthur exhibition. January 18–February 11, 2024. Kunstraum.
The Kunstraum is pleased to present Twice, a project with artist Park McArthur and MA students at the Leuphana University Lüneburg. An October 2023 listening session of McArthur’s work at the Kunstraum launched the project, which continued into January 2024 with weekly hybrid seminar meetings. Guided by disabled artists’ ongoing experiments in description and by in-class guest lectures by historian and critic Rachel Haidu, audio describer and SoundScribe co-founder Elaine Lillian Joseph, and artist and writer Jordan Lord, the seminar studied creative practices of transcription, captioning, imagination, and distributed experience bound to the materiality of disability access (Geelia Ronkina “On Projects 195” The Contemporary Journal, 2020). Participants will draw Twice to a close by collectively producing audio descriptions in German and English. The recorded descriptions and transcripts will remain on the Kunstraum’s website following their public debut on January 17, 2024. This debut will include a student-led live tour in English. McArthur’s Kunstraum exhibition will be open to the public from January 18–February 11, 2024. For access and programming inquiries please write kunstraum@leuphana.de.
