Online Research Seminar Series, Brunel University London, UK

Change of Date: 29 March (BST)

Join us on 29 March (BST) for the third event of the ‘Performance and Political Economy: Bodies, Politics, and Well-Being in the 21st Century’ online Research Seminar Series.

The research seminar series’ main aim is to examine timely issues regarding the relationship between bodies, politics, and well-being through interdisciplinary dialogues between researchers, industry professionals, and stakeholders from the arts, politics, and health and well-being.

Curated and organised by Dr Katerina Paramana, it brings together ten international speakers in three curated, interlinked, dialogical events.

This third event on 29 March examines how the growth economic paradigm affects the well-being of human and non-human bodies (and strategies that can be employed to effect change). It brings together the following speakers:

  • Stephen Butler, Professor of Health and Well-Being, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada
  • Gareth Dale, Reader in Political Economy, Brunel University London
  • Marina Gržinić, Professor at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, Austria and ZRC SAZU, Institute of Philosophy, Ljubljana, Slovenia

We will start with short presentations by the speakers, engage in dialogue, and then open to you for questions.
