Tuan Andrew Nguyen Lecture
@ The Art Institute of Chicago
Fullerton Hall, 111 S Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL 60603
Opening Tuesday, November 7th, from 6PM - 7:30PM
Join us in person for a lecture by artist Tuan Andrew Nguyen followed by an audience Q&A.
Tuan Andrew Nguyen’s work explores the power of storytelling through video and sculpture. His projects are based on extensive research and community engagement, tapping into inherited histories and counter-memory. Nguyen extracts and reworks dominant, oftentimes colonial histories and supernaturalisms into imaginative vignettes. Fact and fiction are interwoven in poetic narratives that span time and place. Nguyen is a founding member of The Propeller Group, an entity that positions itself between a fake advertising company and an art collective.
