With the exhibition Art that disturbs and moves us? we want to reflect on the public art around us. Why do we have art at the university? Why do tastes differ and how can they change over time? In this exhibition, we have collected a few works found at Linnaeus University that have disturbed, moved and perhaps upset us.
Welcome to the opening of Art that disturbs and moves us?
On 18 September 2024 at 2.30pm
Kunskapskuben at the University Library, ground floor, Växjö
The exhibition will be opened by Linnaeus University’s vice-chancellor Peter Aronsson, followed by a discussion between Pernilla Frid, art coordinator and art educator, and Helen Hägglund, programme director of The Cultural University.
