The Usual Suspects

A project by Clare Butcher, participant of the Curatorial Programme 2008/2009 of de Appel

Now that the art of the non-lecture has been clearly realised by our last intellectual’s no-show, The Usual Suspects heads south for the second meeting to discuss the uncertain terrain of Writing Creatively. Our knowledgeable non-guest will be, of course, the indecipherable Clement Greenberg, in collaboration with Your-space (www.your-space.nl)

The Usual Suspects is a series of tongue-in-cheek (intellectually sound) non-lectures conceived to challenge the cult of personality and aloofness in the creative field, and to provide a platform for both experienced and upstart critical thinkers to exchange knowledge. This series uses the spectres of the usual suspects and the areas of research associated with their various oeuvres as a starting point for generating new conversations.

You are invited to participate on Wednesday, the 25th of February, 2009 at 18.30 hours, Kanaalstraat 8, Eindhoven (refreshments will be served, please see blog for directions)
