A Pro Helvetia New Delhi presentation

Description:

Kochi Muziris Biennale has invited the very renowned Swiss artist Thomas Hirschhorn to engage with local audiences and conduct a workshop for a month long period on “Energy: Yes! Quality: No!”

The goals of Critical Workshop “Energy: Yes! Quality: No!” are:
– To encourage doing something, a work of one’s own
– To be ready to have it judged
– To trust one’s own — very own — judgement
