Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In this talk, Professor Halberstam will revisit the sculptural cuts made by Gordon Matta-Clark into abandoned buildings in the 1970’s and use them to rethink contemporary discourses surrounding trans bodies and politics.
Author of Female Masculinity and The Queer Art of Failure, Jack Halberstam is one of our most prominent queer and trans scholars. Places Journal awarded Professor Halberstam its Arcus/Places Prize in 2018 for innovative public scholarship on the relationship between gender, sexuality, and the built environment. He is currently working on his project The Wild Beyond: Music, Architecture and Anarchy sponsored by the Guggenheim Foundation.
