SPACE FOR VARIETY

15:30-16:30 Tuesday 21.03, Social Cinema, Kunsthal Charlottenborg

Noting the market is ever more reluctant to take risks, how can we ensure the richness, heterogeneity and artistic freedom of the non-fiction genre? While we are finding ways to document inequality in terms of race and gender, can we find a method that would reflect the various historic, cultural, social and geo-political realities? And is there a systemic way to secure space for the variety of artistic expressions themselves?
