Letters from Asian Americans in the Arts

Herausgeber: Ho, Christopher; Nam, Daisy

Beschreibung

This collection of seventy-three letters written in 2020 captures an unprecedented moment in politics and society through the experiences of Asian-American artists, curators, educators, art historians, editors, writers, and designers. The form of the letter offers readers intimate insights into the complexities of Asian American experiences, moving beyond the model-minority myth. Chronicling everyday lives, dreams, rage, family histories, and cultural politics, these letters ignite new ways of being, and modes of creating, at a moment of racial reckoning.

Christopher K. Ho is a speculative artist based in New York, Hong Kong, and Telluride, Colorado. His practice encompasses making, organizing, writing, and teaching.

Based between Cambridge, MA and New York City, NY Daisy Nam is an independent curator and programmer. Her areas of focus and research include feminist practices across mediums of performance, film/video, sculpture and installation.
