Civil Society and Art - LGBT and Moving Images

Artists:
Fan Popo (Berlin), Monique Yim (Hong Kong), Cas Wong (Hong Kong)
Moderator: Dr. Isaac Leung

Civil society and art are often in a dynamic interrelationship: social themes that are perceived as relevant and meaningful find their expression in the arts. And art offers a medium for social debates. Hong Kong, with its vibrant cultural and creative scene and a very active civil society, is an impressive testimony to this.

The Goethe-Institut is opening a new series of talks on the topic of civil society and art, in which various areas will be focused on in loose succession. The second event will focus on LGBT and Moving Images. Following the screening of selected video works, we will invite the audience to discuss with the artists.
 

Rundown:
19.00 Screening of selected video works
20.00 Panel Discussion with Fan Popo (Berlin), Monique Yim (Hong Kong), Cas Wong (Hong Kong)
