Enjoy a complimentary cup of coffee and join Tamir Williams, Penn History of Art PhD candidate, for a conversation inspired by the ICA exhibition Karyn Olivier: Everything That’s Alive Moves.

The discussion will consider how Olivier challenges the often presumed permanence of monuments and questions the histories embedded within them. Participants will examine how Olivier’s sculptures and monumental gestures instead highlight the presentness of the past, and the overlooked connections between seemingly disparate histories.
