NTU CCA Singapore Residencies Insights: "Transversations"
12 Feb 2015 - 12 Feb 2015  (7 - 8.30PM )
FEE: Free

Residencies Insights: Transversations
With Artist-in-Residence, Lee Wen and NTU ADM Visiting Professor and Professor, Art History, Theory and Criticism at School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Nora Taylor

Join eminent performance artist, Lee Wen and art historian, Nora Taylor as they present a conversation that will traverse time. An attempt at historicising the temporal based practice of performance art, this "transversation" suggests a journey, a cutting through, a kind of dissection.

Taylor is known for her field research in the ethnography of Vietnamese art and holds the Alsdorf Chair of South and Southeast Asian Art at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her current research explores the role of oral history in remembering performance art specifically in Singapore, Vietnam and Myanmar.
