November 1st – 4 pm Archivorum ARK Lecture

Archivorum Ark, a program initiated by Archivorum, in partnership with Fondazione Antonio Ratti and Galleria Continua for the 2023–2025 cycle, and supported by Creative Europe, grants postgraduate students to be in dialogue with selected artists, Babs Haenen, Belén Uriel, and Nil Yalter. The project treats the archive as a living tool, fostering intergenerational exchange and sharing results through digital platforms and critical publications. Over the past two years, it has unfolded through talks, collective explorations, and a weekly blog documenting students’ methodologies and archival practices. As the first cycle concludes, three books developed with the artists are in production, expanding on the generated materials. For this conversation, the students Anaïs Auger-Mathurin, Christianna Asprouli, and Stephen Biegel will reflect on their experiences, collaborations, and challenges, revealing archives as dynamic and collaborative practices.
