Location/Translation, scheduled to coincide with the opening of the exhibition "Six Lines of Flight" at SFMOMA, is part of Time Zones, a yearlong series of events sponsored by the Arts Research Center at UC Berkeley exploring time-based and socially engaged art practices in an international context. A panel of curators, artists, and scholars will discuss how regional circumstances get articulated within international art contexts--and how "global" conversations can redefine what we think of as "local" production.
Participants will include:
Joseph del Pesco, Kadist San Francisco
Apsara DiQuinzio, SFMOMA
Mihnea Mircan, Extra City Kunsthal, Antwerp
Sanjit Sethi, Center for Art and Public Life, California College of the Arts
Acting ARC Director Julia Bryan-Wilson (History of Art) will moderate.
This event will also serve to welcome to the Berkeley campus Apsara DiQuinzio, who in October begins her new position as Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art and Phyllis C. Wattis MATRIX Curator at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive.
This program is made possible by support from the Institute for International Studies at UC Berkeley, with additional support from the Romanian Cultural Institute and the UC Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive.
