This performance lecture with artist Chris Dobrowolski is an addition to our talks programme and will in fact take place on a Thursday, rather than a Tuesday, in the Jack Hylton Room, situated next door to the Peter Scott Gallery at Lancaster University.
Chris will present current project Toy Stories: How not to make a living as an artist. He shares stories of his latest projects, from his efforts to make friends with Essex taxi drivers to his quest to understand more about his Polish heritage (without speaking a word of Polish). Toy Stories sees Chris dig up some metaphorical ghosts of the past, as well as a real German tank dating from the Second World War, and reminds us how little has changed in populist politics between then and now. Part stand-up comedy, part performance lecture, Toy Stories takes the audience on an irreverent adventure through art, contemporary politics and twentieth century history.
