What types of knowledge do artists produce? How do they give that knowledge form? Featuring works by 11 artists from 9 different countries, Ways of Knowing highlights different ways that artists give form to complex ideas.
The exhibition highlights how some of today’s most compelling artists resist conventional assumptions about how information should be gathered, documented, and shared. Bringing their own perspectives to cultural artifacts and histories, they find new narratives and possibilities within them. Some focus on the ethics of research or the connections between culture, place, and language, while others examine the impacts of colonialism across continents or the historical formation of gender identity, among other themes.
Included artists are Iosu Aramburu, Sammy Baloji, Anna Boghiguian, Cabello/Carceller, Chang Yuchen, Petrit Halilaj, Sky Hopinka, Christine Howard Sandoval, Eduardo Navarro, Gala Porras-Kim, and Rose Salane.
