As part of the Spatial Justice day at the Tate Exchange, The People's Bureau will be hosting Prof Andreas Philippopoulos-Mihalopoulos, whose work is the leading force behind the day's activities.
Prof Philippopoulos-Mihalopoulos defines spatial justice as the conflict that emerges when one body wants to move into the space of another body. This opens up questions of symbiosis, creative confluence and regeneration, but also issues of power imbalances. The interview will elucidate some of these issues in his work, and the ensuing discussion will attempt at situating ourselves in the ongoing move of regeneration but also displacement of local communities.
The event will explore ideas about the role of developers, art institutions, and artists in dealing with issues of spatial justice and productive ways of reflecting them in their practices.
