Symposium: Heritage, Immigration and Temporary Fabrications: Abandoned Facilities and Housing Immigr

Heritage, Immigration and Temporary Fabrications: Abandoned Facilities & Housing Immigration with Material Conjectures, Andrea Delaplace and invited speakers.

The Beaconsfield Commission is part of a wider research project reflected in a symposium planned during the exhibition in conjunction with the Centre for Sculptural Thinking at University of Huddersfield, the University of Reading and Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.

Symposiums in London and Paris will bring into focus the parallels between temporary structures of refugee camps and changing policies of museums regarding the representation of immigrant communities, drawing attention to expedient and shifting national policies around immigration. A variety of different speakers will be invited to present papers and discuss these strands during a series of Symposia in London at Beaconsfield Gallery Vauxhall and later in Paris at the Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.
