On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
In the second lecture, drawing on his work with refugees in the renewed “Nordic whiteness” of Denmark, Mirzoeff explores how people of different backgrounds may nonetheless still appear to one another, appropriating and transforming the concept of “the space of appearance” from Hannah Arendt. In this shift from representation to appearance, visual and cultural studies are rebooted into a visual activism to engage the current crisis.
The second lecture will be folllowed by a panel discussion and a drinks reception.
