2019: GRACE AND GRAVITY

How do gravity and grace define current-day life in the digital age?

A meeting of two conflicting forces: on one hand, the idea of mass and gravity, and all the power that draws us earthwards; on the other, the unburdened fluidity of grace and elegance, which bring the positive momentum of beauty into play.

During the 2019 edition of E.A.T. titled “Grace and Gravity”, creative thinkers from a variety of fields the world over picked up the ball and engaged with this subject through short presentations and in conversation in front of a live audience.

Curated by Daniel Baumann, Bice Curiger, Hans Ulrich Obrist, and Philip Ursprung.
