Tolia Curriculum
Simon Lässig, Microdrama
Wednesday, June 10, 2026, 7 to 9 pm

Simon Lässig will present a selection of texts and images and speak about their relation to early experiences, relational forms of seeing and the medium of film. About the emergence of a distinction between subject and object, self and other in early childhood; and how this distinction can be destabilised. The simultaneity of abstract and real is not constant, it wavers, although the attempt is to make it constant

Tolia Curriculum is a project conceived by Georgian artist Tolia Astakhishvili, unfolding as a daily schedule of workshops, lectures, screenings, readings, and participatory formats for children and adults. In the lead-up to Figure of the Child, her largest exhibition to date, Astakhishvili opens her production and installation process to the public as she develops her work in situ.
