Modes of Relationship: Conversation between WANG Chen and Mikayla Patton

MOSAIC_MCLA

Artist WANG Chen and Mikayla Patton will discuss navigating the contemporary art world that insists on the ideas of authenticity & identity

49 Main St

<p>Please join us for a conversation on art, race, nationality, and gender. In &quot;Renewing the Contemporary,” 
Patrick Flores asks, “how can women&#x27;s art be deterred from reiterating the logic of objectification, if it is to 
change it by reiterating its subjectivities?&quot; In this panel, artists WANG Chen and Mikayla Patton will discuss 
how they navigate the contemporary art world that insists on the ideas of authenticity and identity in their work. What does it mean to work as an artist with marginal identities? To what extent do their identities 
inform their practice? And as Joan Kee asks, “are affiliations of nation, race, and gender more important than 
those chosen by the artist or her work, even to the point where the latter is displaced by the former?” This 
panel will be moderated by Dr. Eunice Uhm, Assistant Professor of Art History and Museum Studies at MCLA.</p>
