This panel discussion brings together in conversation the artists participating in Geography of Transterritories, the exhibition on view in SFAI’s Walter and McBean Galleries from 25 February to 22 May 2010. Curated by SFAI’s Director of Exhibitions and Public Programs Hou Hanru, Geography of Transterritories addresses those issues of transborder conflict that are profoundly changing global modes of production, communication, and space/time organization. These changes have prompted new understandings both of geography and of the geopolitical strategies devised for coping with the new reality of large populations living, whether by force or by choice, in constant displacement. Consistent with the larger mission of SFAI’s Exhibitions and Public programs, this exhibition is also a forum and point of departure for further creative interventions in the public sphere. The opening reception for Geography of Transterritories, from 5:30 to 7:30pm at the Walter and McBean Galleries, will immediately precede this panel discussion.
