Critical Voices 3 presents CROSSOVER - a conference on creative practices in art, architecture and design that move between disciplines, blurring distinctions and generating new constellations of activity, enquiry and research. The conference is programmed with UCD School of Architecture, the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) and the National Gallery. This is a full day event which will begin at 10.30am and finish at 5pm.

Background:
There is a broad sense in contemporary cultural practice that the blurring of distinctions between different domains of practice is a key feature of the most dynamic and experimental of contemporary practices across art, design, architecture and cognate fields. These hybrid practices
often trouble conventional critical categories and require a more creative critical response. This conference is an opportunity to consider and
reflect upon concrete examples of 'crossover' work. It is also an opportunity to consider future opportunities for research-driven explorations of the interaction across the various fields of creative practice.

It will feature a combination of well-known national and international figures discussing their own 'crossover' practices. Speakers will include Tom de Paor, Stefan Eberstadt and Sean Griffiths.
