Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art is proud to present the 2019 Summer Institutes. Joar Nango will lead the second session of the institute called "Indigenous Architectures".
The Summer Institute is an international post-graduate artist research program for professional artists and thinkers working in all disciplines and media. In the 2019 edition, Plug In ICA will host two iterations of the Summer Institute.
The second session, led by Norwegian- Sámi artist/architect, Joar Nango, will run from August 6th to August 16th. Nango will focus on Indigenous architectures with a week of intensive knowledge sharing through a series of lecture programming followed by a week of production. The faculty member will lead participants through a series of texts, discussions, guest lectures, workshops, and studio time for the first week, engaging local, Winnipeg-based, Indigenous architects and thinkers. Participants will be encouraged to produce individually, with the possibility to work with Nango on a new piece by the Winnipeg Rivers, generating a reciprocal engagement to producing work.
Plug In ICA relies on community support to remain free and accessible to all. For more information on this and our other education programs, contact Luther Konadu at [email protected]. For general information please contact: [email protected] or call 1-204-942-1043.
