“Please join us for a lecture performance with Professor Ben Burbridge, author of ‘Photography After Capitalism’ (2020, Goldsmiths Press / MIT Press) on March 16 from 5-6:30, as a part of the closing reception of the FuturesAfter exhibition” Ben Burbridge is Co-Director of the Centre for Photography and Visual Culture at the University of Sussex.

The performance will be held within the site of a permanently closed Peacocks department store in Catford, South London. Burbridge’s talk will center around speculative futures, collaborative learning models and alternatives to privatised and deregulated Higher Education. At a time where institutional models are being challenged across the country, current industrial strike actions brought about by educators and academic staff have allowed a platform for a collective reimagining of what education may look like in future.
