Bringing together artists, writers, intellectuals, filmmakers, critical theorists and philosophers, Home Works offers an unprecedented platform for critical exchange, literature, performance, installation, and the visual arts.
In its third edition, Home Works III: A Forum on Cultural Practices will take place this November.
