Talk with Jill Magid about “The Proposal”
On Monday 11 January 2021, Aksioma will hold an online talk event where a blogger, Regine Debatty from We Make Money Not Art will discuss with Jill Magid her film “The Proposal”. Dr. Maja Bogataj Jančič, LL.M., LL.M. will join the talk as a special guest.
The main topic of the talk, led by Regine Debatty, will be Jill Magid’s film “The Proposal”, which is about an architect Luis Barragan, known as “the artist among architects” and about artists’ fight for democratization of access to art. In this respect, the talk will also discuss what is capitalism’s relationship to art and legacy, what is the law’s relationship to the privatisation of culture, and how can art be a methodology through which challenging issues are dissected. The film can be viewed here.
The talk will also introduce as special guests Alenka Pirman, dr. Maja Bogataj Jančič LL.M.,LL.M. in Matevž Čelik.
The online event is free and will be held at 17:00 live through Facebook.
