ArtReview is pleased to announce that it will again be hosting a series of free weekend panel discussions with artists, curators, writers, architects, designers and directors, as part of Copenhagen’s CHART ART FAIR, located at the Kunsthal Charlottenborg from 26–28 August. This year’s talks will be exploring The Structure of Art and will be moderated by Mark Rappolt, editor-in-chief of ArtReview, and Oliver Basciano, editor (international).
