Where: Level G, Theatrette

Celebrate the launch of un Magazine 11.2: Laugh now, cry later with a talk by Guest Editor David Capra. Sub-Edited by Amelia Winata, 11.2 features over 25 writers and practitioners exploring the intersection of humour and art, and the notion of frivolity in artistic practice. Is it okay for the joke to be the end product, or does it need to weigh in with a moral to be worthy of our attention? Is being funny a distraction, or can it be the point?

un Projects is a collective based in Australia that aims to generate independent and critical dialogue around contemporary art, primarily through publishing projects. With a focus on artists, writers and independent practice, un Projects publishes essays, artists’ work and reviews in print and online.
