TrAIN Open Series

Por um Fio (By a Thread), from the series Fotopoemacao (Photopoemaction), 1976. Black and White analogical photograph, 52x79cm
The TrAIN Open series is a forum for invited speakers to present exhibition, publication, and research projects in the form of lectures, discussions and screenings.
Taking place at fortnightly intervals on Wednesday evenings during the academic term, the series is open to the public, as well as staff and students across the University of the Arts London.
Since its inception leading practitioners have continued to contribute to the series and it has become an opportunity to establish lasting dialogue with those who share an interest in transnational art. Guest speakers to date are listed in the Directory area of this website.
