P L A C E Symposium Panel One

What does it mean to be an Asian American artist in this present time?
Jeff Chang, author of Can’t Stop Won’t Stop, We Gon’ Be Alright, and Who We Be, leads a lively, intergenerational discussion on how an artist’s identity influences their work, and whether there is a responsibility to be true to yourself or a greater responsibility to be true to your community. And, what does activism look like from an artist’s perspective? Panelists include visual artist Phung Huynh, filmmaker Jalena Keane Lee, and visual artist Jenifer Wofford.
This event is a related program of P L A C E: Reckonings by Asian American Artists, an exhibition jointly organized by Montalvo Arts Center’s Lucas Artists Program and the ICA San Jose.
