To coincide with the launch of their first UK solo exhibition, artist-writer Carolyn Lazard joins us for a special screening programme followed by a discussion with Derica Shields.
The evening begins with screenings of three video works by Lazard. These are broadly engaged with the temporal – either in their structural form, through their use of duration and repetition, or by addressing the complex histories of institutionalised care. The works include the recent Pre-Existing Condition (2019), the title of which is a commonly used phrase in the US healthcare industry that threatens to curtail or pre-determine one’s access to healthcare, while also obscuring the near-universal need for care.
The screening will be followed by a conversation between Lazard and writer-researcher Derica Shields. The discussion will be informed by their overlapping interests in accessibility, state social services and black people's entanglements within these systems across different geopolitical contexts.
This evening coincides with Lazard’s first UK solo exhibition (2 April – 24 May at Cell Project Space, London), which explores their ongoing interest into redefining the margins of politics through care.
