Play Hard, Play Fair @ Southern Exposure

Join Southern Exposure for a conversation on the forms and narratives of socially engaged artwork in the Bay Area, with a focus on Robby Herbst’s upcoming participatory project, New New Games. New New Games is a large-scale public art event that will take place June 18th in a public park in San Francisco. The project reflects upon the resonance of 1970s era humanism, the attendant New Games Movement, and on current forms of labor and leisure. The conversation will look at this project, games as social practice, and uses of historical re-enactment. The discussion will be followed by a reception.
