“From October 4 to 7, join us for the first edition of the Latin American Media Arts Symposium (LAMAS) in Toronto.

Over the course of 4 days, we will gather with a group of curious and thoughtful artists, filmmakers, critics, and academics engaging with Latin American* artistic production in Canada. We will be having panel discussions, round tables, performances, and special collaborations with local arts organizations. Some of the questions we will be tackling are: how are spaces and institutions supporting the visibility of Latin American media arts and film in Canada? What challenges and opportunities arise from translations and mistranslations? How are identities and bodies transformed as a new notion of home is built? How can we move forward through local and transnational collaboration?

All panels will be open to the public, and entrance will be free! Please register in advance.

Dates

Wednesday, October 4,  to Saturday, October 7.

Where:

Friends House, 60 Lowther Ave, Toronto.”
