Throughout the duration of the exhibition on Forensic Architecture, Violence, Fast and Slow, State of Concept will be hosting a series of lectures and discussions. The first of three discursive public events to take place is the symposium and round table on the 28th of September. Forensic Architecture’s Stefanos Levidis and Christina Varvia, accompanied by Angela Dimitrakaki and Gene Ray, will discuss new forms of violence through the re-emergence of fascist and xenophobic rhetorics, producing a newfound authoritarianism performed by elected governments and citizens alike.

The day is co-organised with Antifascist Culture, a collective of cultural workers from Athens.
