Artist Bingyi: Land of Immortals, Joan B Mirviss LTD and INKstudio
Zoom panel event, Thursday, February 24, 5pm EST
For the next ZOOM panel event, INKstudio with co-host Joan B Mirviss LTD will bring together Beijing- and Los-Angeles-based artist, writer, film-maker and art historian Bingyi (b. 1975) with distinguished curators Susan L. Beningson, Susanna Ferrell and David Ake Sensabaugh. This group of insightful panelists will discuss the context of Bingyi’s contemporary ink landscape painting practice. How does an artist innovate within a tradition that has been unfolding continuously over a two-thousand-year period? How does she create meaning in the context of a global contemporary art world unfamiliar with Chinese art history and culture? What role does gender play in prompting the transformation of this formerly male-dominated tradition? What is the relevance of East Asian artistic traditions to the development of world culture in the future? Join us to explore these and other questions related to historical and contemporary art practice.
