SUMMARY:Ways of Undoing with Dawn Chan
DESCRIPTION:What happens if you refuse to fly for work? For gallerists\, curators\, and others working in the globalized field of contemporary visual art\, air travel and other carbon-intensive infrastructures are a necessity. Underwritten by nations in pursuit of soft power\, or by patrons jet-setting their way through a global art-fair circuit\, the forms of exchange most prominently driving contemporary art’s circulation have become entirely reliant on jet fuel. \nOn Friday 9/19\, writer and cultural critic Dawn Chan will present an on-going research project springing from a single constraint: What happens when an art critic refuses to fly for art events and press trips? Going beyond a narrow understanding of flight-free alternatives (like Zoom talks)\, the project proposes serious\, whimsical\, unsettling\, even absurdist alternatives. Could one hire an actor as a doppelganger? Stage a Twitch livestream lecture? Retain an attorney as a mouthpiece for a day? Jointly review a faraway show with a local critic?
