A PhD candidate, researcher, curator, and author will share her thoughts on the philosophy of horror: why, for someone living in the city, attending such films becomes not just an entertaining event, but a truly cathartic experience. This talk is part of a public program timed to coincide with one of the most talked-about exhibitions at Winzavod this year.

Date and time: June 1 at 2:00 PM.
