In conjunction with exhibition preview of Andrea Geyer, When We, the German / American artist presents a lecture on her multi-disciplinary practice that incorporates photography, performance, video, drawing and painting in which to address the politics of specific events, sites or biographies.

Exploring a selection of most recent works presented at IMMA, Geyer discusses her study of the formation of modern art, its institutions and their histories through a feminist lens – and sheds light on ideologically driven omissions that have formed the basis of her own artistic enquiry.
