THE SOCIETY FOR SPECULATION PRESENTS: The World Ahead – An Interactive Presentation
When: Fri., Sept. 27, 11 a.m.-12 p.m. 2024
We’re all tempted, seduced by the question: what will happen next? Join artist Rachel Simmons and writer Chrissy Kolaya for a presentation on The World Ahead, their collaborative artists’ book project about prediction, fortune-telling and other ways of guessing the future! As part of this talk, Simmons and Kolaya will share samples from this three-book series in progress and discuss the inspiration, process, and collaboration. They will also invite the audience to participate in an interactive prediction game. This program is in connection with the exhibition Critical Reading: Book Arts in Dialogue with the Collection, which is co-curated by Simmons.
