SUMMARY:Public Lecture: Tongji Philip Qian - The Diary of An Encounter Which Seemed to Have Never Happened
DESCRIPTION:Tongji Philip Qian \nJoin us for a free\, public lecture from Visiting Artist Tongji Philip Qian. In his lecture\, The Diary of An Encounter Which Seemed to Have Never Happened\, he will discuss fluid interpretations of artist responsibilities\, locating and subsequently negotiating with the intersections among rigid “truth\,” package “identity\,” and time- and location-specific pursuit of freedom. \nTongji Philip Qian is a multidisciplinary artist and the co-founder of TPQ Studio. His artistic practice extends the limit of artmaking through conceptual lenses such as speed\, labor\, internationalism\, and immigration. His art writing\, on the other hand\, studies movements commonly associated with Minimalism\, Post-Minimalism\, and Conceptual art. \nTongji Philip Qian’s current exhibition\, Alloyed Commitments at the Logan Center for the Arts in Chicago. Read more about the project in a review by New City Art or the University of Chicago’s student newspaper\, the Chicago Maroon. Other recent projects include Neighborly Passport Keep Right Except to Pass (2023)\, Questionnairing Reality (2021)\, and Art Beside a Single Handshake (2020). His work is housed in a number of public and private collections\, such as the Asia Art Archive in America\, Center for Book Arts\, and the RISD Museum. \nSupport Cranbrook Academy of Art’s Public Lecture Series\, which invites a range of artists\, designers\, architects\, critics\, writers\, curators\, and other professionals of national and international stature\, by donating to our Annual Fund! \nImage courtesy Today Clothing\, Ann Arbor\, MI; Photo by Bob (Robert Heishman and Robert Salazar)
