IMA alum Dylan Gauthier will discuss his exhibition, Artist talk: highwatermarks, at the Brandywine River Museum of Art in Pennsylvania. His art project is an immersive video and audio installation that presents a panorama on the course of Brandywine River and its surrounding communities. Gauthier will share insights about his research and documentation of the river and his work with Brandywine Conservancy staff throughout the course of his residency, and reflect on the role and power of art to shift societal perceptions of ecological issues.
IMA student Betty Yu was featured in the article, Artists Transform Old Chinatown Beauty Parlor into a Creative Playground, on Huffington Post which reviewed the interactive installation, Through The Parlor. Reported by Priscilla Frank, the article explores the work of the artists whom put together the interactive gallery using various media to explore the culture that grows in the space of a hair salon, in terms of capital, labor and cultural identity. Betty Yu was one of the artists apart of Through the Parlor whom has contributed her interactive installation, WORKShifts, to the exhibition.
Through The Parlor runs until December 14th at 24 Rutgers street Chinatown. It is open on Wednesday to Sunday from 1:00-7:00PM.
