The Wirth Institute was proud to cosponsor the “Modes of Modernism: Vienna 1900 and Beyond” conference at the University of London. It was a vibrant, multidisciplinary gathering exploring Viennese Modernism through literature, philosophy, architecture, mathematics, and more.

Anyone who actually knows a trans person, anyone who is the parent or sibling or child of a trans person, knows what a terrible, retrograde decision this is by the UK Supreme Court. A ruling based on phantoms created by Rowling and her ilk, which has nothing to do with real people who will suffer.
