SUMMARY:Changing Cultures: Zhen Guo\, A Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:The Mishkin Gallery at Baruch College is proud to present Changing Cultures: Zhen Guo\, A Retrospective\, the first major New York survey of artist Zhen Guo (b. 1955\, Shandong Province\, China). \nThe works on display span nearly sixty years\, from Zhen Guo’s first embroidery (Chairman Mao\, 1966) to her large-scale papier-mâché and sewn fabric breast sculptures and handmade tufted tapestries of 2012-2025. The show explores an artist’s journey from China to New York; themes include an immigrant’s identity\, motherhood\, and the violence embedded in patriarchal cultures. Guo’s large-scale “muted landscape” paintings protest environmental injustice. The exhibition is accompanied by an illustrated brochure with a new essay on Guo by curator Gail Levin. \nZhen Guo Video Works\, 2011-2022 \nThursday\, May 7\, 2026 | 5:30PM to 6:30PM\n \nA special 50-minute program screening original video works consisting of: \n\n\nZhen Guo\, Timeline of Movement\, 2011 (5:44) –  In her debut video art\, Guo contrasts Western and Asian approaches to health through tranquil T’ai Chi and vigorous group exercise\, illustrating their distinct yet engaging qualities.\nCleansing Moon\, 2018 (7:24) –  Gentle exploration of women’s renewal connects life\, femininity\, and the cosmos through the refreshing imagery of water.

SUMMARY:Performance - The Table
DESCRIPTION:The Table is a new work of performance that explores insatiability\, grief\, and the body within larger systems. Through immersive\, visceral meditations and a fever dream-like performance language—combining movement\, puppetry\, and everyday objects—the work opens liminal\, shifting worlds where anything can become a portal. Rooted in Pink Fang’s legacy of socially engaged\, interdisciplinary performance\, the work centers collective experience\, relational exchange\, and the body as a site of inquiry. Both poetic and unsettling\, it examines the forces that drive desire and dissatisfaction\, asking a central question: What is enough?
