Join us on Saturday 10 April for an online conversation featuring Adam Porter (Head of Curatorial, Campbelltown Arts Centre, Sydney, Australia) and Mai Nguyễn-Long (Artist, Bulli, Australia).
Sharing experiences of otherness, Mai and Adam will discuss how research and respect for ‘traditional’ expressive forms of cultural practices—particularly, folkloric practices—can offer instructive wisdom and help us recalibrate our understandings of contemporary art. This dialogue emphasises where translation and re-contextualisation occurs, and how this knowledge enriches our appreciation of our environment.
This is the second talk in a four-part online talk series, as part of the Australia Council for the Arts ‘Curatorial Associates Program’.
