Whitechapel Gallery Director Gilane Tawadros chairs a discussion with artists Janette Parris, Matthew Krishanu and Sarah Dobai exploring key themes from the exhibition Life is More Important than Art. In the work of featured artists – spanning film, painting, photography and installation – past and present histories are interwoven and personal stories are entangled with global events.
This discussion opens up these stories and explores threads across artistic practices, to reflect on the critical role of art during challenging times.
