It partners with L’Internationale Online, whereby practices featured are studied through a public lecture and closed sessions with students.

The final lecture of 2024-2025 is given by Nkule Mabaso, curator and director of Fotogallereit in Oslo. Mabaso will reflect on navigating the complexities of exhibiting photographic works in medium-specific institutions.
