Inquisitive Traveler: A Walk through the World(s) of Tseng Kwong Chi
@ Block Museum
40 Arts Circle Dr, Evanston, Illinois 60208
Opening Thursday, November 3rd, from 12PM - 1PM
My mirrored glasses give the picture a neutral impact and a surrealistic quality I am looking for. I am an inquisitive traveler, a witness of my time, and an ambiguous ambassador.
– Tseng Kwong Chi (1950-1990)
Join us for a free lunchtime walk through the world(s) of Tseng Kwong Chi led by Block Museum Curator for Global and Contemporary Art, Janet Dees. By focusing on a few select works in the exhibition, “Tseng Kwong Chi: Performing for the Camera”, Dees will highlight some of the impotant themes running through the artist’s witty work.
