Long Durée: Not Vital on Engadin Art Talks

27 January 2021
30 January 2021

Not Vital will be in conversation with Grażyna Kulczyk, Founder of Muzeum Susch, to discuss his recent site-specific work, Tuor per Susch (Tower for Swiss) (2020), installed above the main building of the museum. 

Hosted by Engadin Art Talks, he joins artists, architects, designers, writers and scientists for a twelve hour livestream sharing their ideas, thoughts and projects on the theme of: "Longue Durée".

"Longue Durée" literally means "long duration". It is a view of history first introduced by the French historian Fernand Braudel. Braudel's "Longue Durée" allows us to interpret crises as opportunities for fundamental structural change. Art is one mean by which we can reimagine existing paradigms to accommodate new discoveries and create new realities.In line with the theme of the "Longue Durée" and with A commitment to sustainability and safety, the lineup is composed by international speakers tuning in from home, including some E.A.T. alumni, and Swiss-based thought leaders.
