WATCH: Richard Weller, To the Ends of the Earth
In this talk, author Richard Weller takes us on an intellectual adventure through a carefully curated selection of places that can be understood as metaphors of contemporary global culture.
A condensed version of the tour found in Weller’s book of the same name, ranging across Steve Jobs’ Apple Park in California, a small field station for the protection of wild orangutans in Borneo, the Great Green Wall in Central Africa, the Trump resort Mar-a-Lago, and more.

This talk was organised in a collaboration between Bookshop by Uro and the NGV Melbourne Art Book Fair 2024.
