Arts Forum: Freedom of Expression in the Arts

May 23, 2023 at 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm UTC+0

We are delighted to announce that at our next meeting, Professor Kathleen Stock and Rosie Kay will lead a discussion on what freedom of expression means for the Arts.

Although now well-known for her public engagement with debates pertaining to gender identity, Professor Stock forged her academic career through work on aesthetics and the artistic imagination in literature, music and the visual arts. As well as publishing numerous articles and chapters, she is the author of the book Only Imagine: Fiction, interpretation, and imagination (Oxford University Press, 2017). Professor Stock will be in conversation with the award-winning choreographer Rosie Kay. Rosie is currently preparing to tour with her show 5 Soldiers.

 

The Free Speech Union is a non-partisan, mass-membership public interest body that stands up for the speech rights of its members. You can find out more about us here.

The FSU Arts Forums have been formed to support arts professionals in developing an effective defence of freedom of expression, capable of standing up to its latest challenges.

 

Attendance is by invitation only and the evening will be conducted according to the Chatham House rule. If there are others you think we should invite, please let us know.

Dr Jan Macvarish, Education and Events Director, The Free Speech Union
