SUMMARY:Exhibition - LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art
DESCRIPTION:LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art explores the intersection of art and sports through the work of contemporary Asian and Asian American artists. While often considered distinct fields\, this exhibition highlights how sport and artistic expression serve as interconnected arenas. Featuring artists and collectives across a wide range of artistic media\, LEGENDS examines how artists of Asian descent engage with the shared language of art and sport to reflect identity\, nationalism\, the body\, and performance.  \nThe first exhibition to specifically focus on the relationship between art and sports within contemporary Asian and Asian American art\, LEGENDS will debut works by The Chinatown Basketball Club\, Kaarina Chu Mackenzie\, and Astria Suparak.

SUMMARY:2026 Graduate Conference of Inter-Asian Perspectives Work Group: When is Asia Modern? Negotiating Borders of Modernisms
DESCRIPTION:Asian modern art has long been framed through a Western art-historical chronology\, locating its “beginning” in the late nineteenth to early twentieth century—precisely the moment of intensified encounters with the West and the imposition of Eurocentric models of modernity onto Asia. Recent scholarship across the humanities has begun to unsettle this timeline: some push the chronology backward to examine early articulations of Asian modernity in mercantile networks and imperial formations; others push it forward to engage shared global histories of the post\, i.e.\, postcolonial\, post-imperial\, post-socialist. To propose an alternative approach to thinking about Asia Modern\, we ask: how do Asian modernisms emerge through the negotiation of borders? Here\, borders may be understood as Cartographic Borders—those drawn and redrawn in nation-building\, imperial expansion\, or decolonization; Cultural Borders—those that define\, delimit\, or delegitimize certain formations of groups\, ideas\, practices\, etc.; and/or Aesthetic Borders—the negotiations of style\, medium\, and form that highlight\, contest\, or blur distinctions and affinities within and across artistic traditions. Rather than recasting the Euro-American centers as the primary axis through which these borders are negotiated\, we invite papers that consider intra-Asian encounters as sites of emerging Asian modernisms. By examining how these different borders are made\, crossed\, and reconfigured\, we collectively explore alternative imaginaries of the Asia Modern.
