Description
Keywords School at YBCA is the San Francisco iteration of an interactive multimedia installation by Chinese artist Xu Tan that was launched in 2006 and has been previously presented in London, Stockholm, Guangzhou, New York City and at the 53rd Venice Biennale. While Xu Tan is in residence at YBCA, he plans to hold classes in YBCA’s Gallery 3 and teach Cantonese keywords to the public and students from local universities. The classes will generate additional keywords that will help reveal the opinions and attitudes of a western audience towards the current status of China and its role in the global environment. Classes are held on Thursdays (6-8 pm) and Saturdays (2–4 pm), from Sep 26-Oct 24, 2009. To RSVP for Keywords School classes, please email [email protected].When Keywords School at YBCA is not in session, gallery audiences are invited to interact with the keywords, which are presented through video projections and computer stations.
