TALKING WOMEN AND CREATIVITY WITH MARIA GIMENO AND ALEXANDER SAMSON

The artist, Maria Gimeno, and Professor Alexander Samson from 果冻影院 (SELC-SPLAS) warmly invite you to attend a roundtable discussion on the question of women and creativity. The event aims to enrich our current understanding of the impact of women鈥檚 cultural achievements on society through a lively, open discussion of different approaches to the question.

The event will begin with a fun performance by Maria Gimeno, where the audience will be invited to play a bingo game of female artists, which will serve as an introduction to the question under discussion. Thereafter, speakers from different backgrounds (academic, literary, and artistic) will share their experiences with female authorship and/or artistic creation, directly and indirectly: by taking turns, each speaker will provide concise (2-3-minute) answers to a set number of questions posed by the moderator. Following the speakers鈥 interventions, the audience will be invited to share their experiences, with a view to further enrich the discussion.
