New imaginations through art

Does art hurt or heal? Art is a realm for dealing with the past - through truth-seeking, memorialization and even fact-finding. The roundtable discusses art as a site for resistance as well as a path towards reconciliation after war and state violence, including the Swedish state violence against Sapmí people. It asks how imaginations of cultural heritage can be expanded and challenged.

Speakers:

Cecilia Widenheim, Head of Tensta Konsthall, Stockholm

Anders Sunna, artist, Sápmi StreetArt

James Gow, King’s College, London
