Open Forum is an interdisciplinary online critique class, offering space for focused conversations around each artist’s work and a shared theme.
Varying in duration and format, this structure is intended for artists to gain meaningful feedback on their work, while deepening their engagement across a broad range of formal and theoretical practices.
The participating artists co-create a thematic syllabus and library built through the exchange of supporting materials (texts, historical references, media). These courses will be guided by a GP Facilitator, acting as support for maintaining an intentional open dialogue.
