Elisava Masters’ Talks and lectures
These talks are free and open to the entire community and the city in general. They can also be seen in live streaming through Elisava’s Youtube.
The first edition of this cycle was held in the 2019-20 academic year and included the participation of the art historian and founder of Droog Design Renny Ramakers, the Magnum photojournalist Susan Meiselas, the designer and artist Morag Myerscough, the art director specialized in animation Anna Ginsburg and the architect and art curator Eva Franch.
