On the occasion of Once upon a midnight dreary, please join us on Saturday, November 15 at 12 p.m for a conversation between French painter, Djabril Boukhenaïssi and Editor-in-Chief of Poetry magazine, Adrian Matejka.

Taking the exhibition as a point of departure, this conversation will explore Boukhenaïssi’s poetic investigations into the darkness of night as both subject and metaphor; reflecting on how the night, once a realm of mystery and imagination, has been eroded by modern light pollution and how this loss reshapes society.
