Come see Britta Marakatt-Labba talk about her life and her art, in conversation with conservator Charis Gullickson.

Britta Marakatt-Labba is the winner of the John Savio Award 2017, and has been a notable figure in the Sámi, Norwegian and Swedish art scene for decades. Sha was part of the MASI group in the 1970s, an important movement within Sámi culture, art and identity. Marakatt-Labba has been and still is a pioneer, forging new paths for other Sámi artists. She has manifested scenes from both Sámi history and mythology, in a way that tears down conventions and stereotypes of Sámi art, culture and identity. This year she was part of the prestigious art happening Documenta 14 in Kassel, Germany.

Free and open for all.
