This interdisciplinary panel brings together artists and scholars in a conversation about new models for studying identity in the present moment. Inspired by Jes Fan’s artistic practice—which challenges assumptions about binary categorization, including of race and gender—the program combines brief presentations and conversation to draw out many of the themes within the exhibition. Introduced and moderated by Margaret Ewing, the Gallery’s Horace W. Goldsmith Assistant Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art. Participants include Pamela M. Lee, the Carnegie Professor of Modern and Contemporary Art, Department of the History of Art, Yale University; Tavia Nyong’o, the William Lampson Professor of American Studies, Black Studies, Theater, Dance, & Performance Studies, Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Yale University; and A.L. Steiner, Senior Critic, Yale School of Art.
Generously cosponsored by the Gallery’s Martin A. Ryerson Lectureship Fund and Happy and Bob Doran Artist-in-Residence Fund; the Yale Center for the Study of Race, Indigeneity, and Transnational Migration; the Yale School of Art; and the American Studies Program and Department of the History of Art of Yale University. Offered in conjunction with the exhibition Jes Fan: Unbounded. Exhibition made possible by the Happy and Bob Doran Artist-in-Residence Fund and the Joann and Gifford Phillips, Class of 1942, Fund.
