Artists Heman Chong, Adeela Suleman, Adrian Wong, and Takayuki Yamamoto join moderator Hou Hanru, San Francisco Art Institute's director of exhibitions and public programs, in a lively conversation on how sensorial, cultural, historical, geopolitical, and other experiences of different locales in Asia serve as a rich source of ideas and inspiration.
Phantoms of Asia: Contemporary Awakens the Past is the first large-scale exhibition of contemporary art organized by the Asian Art Museum. And 2012 marks the inaugural year of Asian Contemporary Art Week-SF (ACAC). Join the Asian Art Museum and ACAC to kick off both events in a special "Day of Dialogue." Artists whose works are included in Phantoms of Asia discuss emerging themes in contemporary art, creating contemporary work for a traditional art museum, and the challenges of producing site-specific work.
