a talk and project tour by Nonchalance

As part of their Bellwether public project, artist collaborative Nonchalance invite guest artist and curator Audrey Greigh to Southern Exposure to discuss her most recent attempt at working with the Elsewhere Public Works Agency (EPWA). For Greigh, her interest in the EPWA started when she first noticed a few strange signs and postings declaring that all fences were to be “Soon Obsolete.” Curious about this proposition and its unusual authority over public space, Greigh set out to discover the origins of these signs only to discover that the EPWA was behind them. Find out what she learned about who the EPWA are and what they do to maintain and manage “nonchalance.”

There will be an opportunity to explore the mysteries behind the EPWA and their projects directly after the talk with Greigh. Come prepared with an open mind and a willingness to reach your own conclusions.
