Artists at Work: Knut Åsdam and Ken + Julia Yonetani

About

Join us on the evening of Tuesday, March 20 at 6:30pm for a conversation with artists Knut Åsdam and Ken + Julia Yonetani.

Knut Åsdam will present his practice, and will show excerpts from his latest film. This medium-length feature is a two-part piece set in the borderland between Norway and Russia. Set in a region with increasing geopolitical tension, the film is an installment in a series of Åsdam’s films that look at contemporary Europe.

An informal discussion by Japanese-Australian artist duo Ken + Julia Yonetani will focus on the materiality of life and art in liquid times. How does the artist create resilience in a world of increasing connections and disconnections? Is there an art to survival and a survivalist art?

This program is supported, in part, by Australia Council for the Arts, Office for Contemporary Art Norway, New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council, and New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

This event is free and open to the public.
