WHO'S IN TOWN: MICHELLE YEONHO HYUN
Asymmetry, 102a Albion Drive, London E8 4LY
6–7.30PM, 08.11.2024
Who's in Town is a loose programme series that invites curators, writers, researchers, and arts practitioners passing by London to stop at Asymmetry for a casual conversation with our audience. Designed to foster open sharing among peers and colleagues, the format offers a unique opportunity to engage and exchange with exciting practitioners of different contexts. Each conversation begins with the guest’s current interests, allowing the dialogue to unfold from these initial points of connection.
For our very first session, Michelle Yeonho Hyun, Director/Curator of ICA at NYU Shanghai, will be in town and in conversation with our Director, Michèle Ruo Yi Landolt.
ACCESS INFORMATION
This event takes place on the ground floor with step-free access in our multi-purpose programme space, with a fully accessible, all-gender bathroom. Earplugs and ear guards will be available for visitors to use.
