Saturday 30 November 1.30pm
Catrin Huber is artist and Professor of Fine Art at Newcastle University. Her large-scale works are often in dialogue with specific places, exploring their contexts and histories, and their architectural features and idiosyncrasies. While working across a range of media, She is interested in how paintings can define or subvert places, how they set-up relations between actual and fictional spaces, while conjuring unexpected relations between materiality and representation. Colour, materials, and emotions loom large.
Her project Expanded Interiors brought site-responsive installations to two Roman houses in Pompeii and Herculaneum. In this talk for the Friends of the Hatton Catrin Huber takes Expanded Interiors as a starting point to talk more about Screaming / Dreaming, which was an intervention into the Antikensammlung in the Kunsthalle zu Kiel.
