About Face: Artists Discuss Portraiture, Portrait-Making, and Identity
Closing of the exhibition kip fulbeck: part asian, 100% hapa
How are contemporary artists using portraiture and portrait-making processes to examine, reflect, and/or challenge constructions of identity?
Kip Fulbeck and Los Angeles-based artists Shizu Saldamando and Jessica Shokrian gather to discuss the role of ethnicity, race, class, age, gender, and sexuality in shaping their work. The conversation promises to be a lively commentary on ways of seeing the self and others. Moderated by Steven Nelson, Assistant Professor of art history at UCLA. Book signing with Kip Fulbeck to follow.
