Guggenheim Museum announces Artist Talks. Yael Bartana and Natascha Sadr Haghighian

Natascha Sadr Haghighian: “when night falls in the forest of static choices” Tuesday, January 31, 6:30 pm.

In a program that combines elements of a performance, a lecture, and an interactive scavenger hunt, Natascha Sadr Haghighian invites museum visitors to initiate a dialogue with special agents from her past projects. The artist will participate in a series of conversations provoked by a selection of objects, allowing the focus and pace of the evening to follow the currents of her audience’s attention. Drawing on a diverse range of mediums, including installation, video, and performance, Sadr Haghighian’s conceptual practice is primarily concerned with the cultural construction of perception and the politics of artistic production. Rather than offering highlights from a conventional curriculum vitae, Sadr Haghighian refers to bioswop.net, a forum that encourages the free exchange and appropriation of biographical information.
