º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ this event

Join LU Arts (in person or online) for the launch  of Radar's new programme for 2024-26 with a discussion event.

Rehearsals (for a world we could live in) explores artistic practices of ‘world-building’ and ‘rehearsal’, which enact or perform more just and liveable worlds.

The Rehearsals programme will commission a series of artists whose work imagines new worlds or ways of living, from more equitable healthcare systems, to climate solidarity networks, to embodied forms of justice. This programme connects to research happening across º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ, from the Health Humanities research group, to the Institute for Advanced Studies (IAS), to researchers in English, Sociology, Politics, Architecture and more.

For this discussion, in addition to hearing from two of the artists who will work with Radar as part of this programme, Dani Admiss & Luiza Prado, LU Arts are hosting invited guest speakers Jemma Desai, Amahra Spence and Hannah Wallis; their distinct practices each model more liveable worlds: from life-affirming infrastructures, to accessible futures, to decolonial and abolitionist scholarship and praxis.
