Hans-Christian Schink in conversation with Olga Smith

​

The question of relating to landscape, through ethical, emotional and intellectual engagement on behalf of the artist, will be the focus of this talk. The question will be explored with reference to the photographic series “Verkehrsprojekte Deutsche Einheit” (1995-2003) by Hans-Christian Schink, present in the exhibition.

Olga Smith writes and lectures on contemporary art and photography. She is currently based at the Humboldt University where she holds a postdoctoral fellowship. Trained as an art historian at the University of Cambridge, she has previously worked at the Tate Gallery London. Her current research projects include representations of landscape in photography from the 1980s to the present day.
