About this Event


Join us for a conversation inspired by the new exhibition addressing technology, place, and human impact with co-curators of the exhibition Jennifer Johung and Kirk Nickel, artist Jason S. Yi, and Indigenous scholar Mark Freeland. Haggerty curator Kirk Nickel will introduce Robert Rauschenberg’s Stoned Moon print series and the intersection of land and technology at Cape Canaveral that sparked Rauschenberg’s imagination at the time of the Apollo 11 lunar mission. Jason S. Yi will discuss his new work on the red-crowned crane in the Korean Demilitarized Zone, and how it extends into broader thematic issues about place, memory, and the environment. Mark Freeland, Director of the Electa Quinney Institute at UW-Milwaukee, will discuss local land restoration efforts and partnerships. The conversation will be moderated by Jennifer Johung, Director of UW-Milwaukee's Center for 21st Century Studies.

Directions and Parking information may be found on our website.
