Presentations:

This seminar is held at the occasion of the K3 Halloween Exhibition in 2024, which is held in collaboration between Malmö University Comics Hub, K3 Monster Lab and The Party of the Dead. After the seminar, participants on site will be given a tour of the exhibition (which is at that point probably still “in the making”.).

Max Evstropov will give a presentation of the activist art group Party of the Dead from its beginnings in 2017 until now.

Åsa Harvard Maare makes a presentation focusing on the role of participatory art and black humour in the actions of the Party of the Dead.

Oleg Ozerov will talk about his experiences of making art actions with Party of the Dead, as well as within Vegan Georgia.

(we count on 3x15 minutes presentations, with time for discussion)
