  • Thoughts and Reactions to Washington DC’s (e)merge Art Fair 2012

    The painter David Reed has a body of work he discusses as “bedroom paintings.” At (e)merge Art Fair, housed in the Capital Skyline Hotel, every painting is a “hotel room painting” or a “bathroom sculpture,” and each space is loaded with cognitive dissonance.

  • (e)merge: Performance Art

    In performative installation Made in China, Joyce Yu-Jean Lee operated a cart from which she sold small red and gold packages for five dollars, manufactured in the United States and branded with an image combining a star from the American flag and the Apple logo.

  • “Made in China.” at (e)merge Reviewed!

    Thanks for your generous support of my first performance-based video installation, or “installation art activated by the Artist’s Presence” …a phrase coined by Adam Budak, curator of Contemporary Art, Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, during the “Performance Art: IMPACT” panel discussion at (e)merge art fair.

  • A gallery of (e)merging artists

    Art comes in many shapes and sizes at the the 2012 (e)merge art fair.

  • (e)merge Takes Over The Capitol Skyline Hotel

    The Capitol Skyline Hotel will look different over the next three days. The (e)merge art fair has brought in 152 artists and 80 galleries to set up installations, paintings, sculpture and site-specific works that transform the hotel in an art gallery for up-and-coming artists.

  • (e)merge Art Fair!

    I am excited to participate as an Independent Artist in (e)merge Art Fair, Thurs, Oct 4 – Sun, Oct 7 at the Capitol Skyline Hotel in Washington, D.C. Please come out to see my new installation and performance project!

  • Fellows Converge: Obstructions

    My 2-year Hamiltonian Fellowship culminated with this collaborative group exhibition curated by Tim Doud, Co-chair of the Art Department at American University. The So Fellowship has provided me opportunities to mount solo exhibitions, a solo booth at Scope NYC 2011, and plug into the D.C. art scene. I feel privileged to be selected for this, and am grateful for Paul So’s vision for and support of the arts!
