Lecture on Roman Ondák at The Common Guild, Glasgow, 21 November, 6pm.
Coinciding with Roman Ondák's (Žilina, Slovakia, 1966) exhibition 'Some Thing' at The Common Guild (12 October – 14 December 2013), Latitudes will offer its thoughts on the work of the artist. Latitudes has presented Ondák’s work and written about his practice for various publications including Tate ETC.
Latitudes will talk about some key work by Roman Ondák – including SK Parking (2001) and The Stray Man (2006) – suggesting how fin-de-siècle Vienna provides a lens with which to focus on its negotiation of both the cliché of "life as art" and the grim stereotype of "the everyday" in the former Eastern Europe.
The talk will be recorded and later available on the website of The Common Guild.
Places are free but limited.

Ponencia sobre Roman Ondák en The Common Guild, Glasgow, 21 noviembre, 18h.
Coincidiendo con la exposición 'Some Thing' de Roman Ondák (Žilina, Slovakia, 1966) en The Common Guild (12 October – 14 December 2013), Latitudes dará una charla sobre la obra del artista. Latitudes ha presentado su obra y escrito sobre su práctica artística en publicaciones como Tate ETC.
Latitudes hablará sobre algunos trabajos clave de Roman Ondák – incluyendo SK Parking (2001) y The Stray Man (2006) – que sugieren como el fin-de-siècle vienés ofrece un lente que nos permite analizar cómo su trabajo negocia constantemente el cliché de la "vida como arte" y el sombrío estereotipo de "lo cotidiano" en la antigua Europa del Este.
La conversación será grabada y disponible a través de la web de The Common Guild.
Acceso libre, aunque limitado.
