Events › Cultural Transcendence: Gu Xiong's Forty Years of Migration and Artistic Practice 文化升華: 顧雄四十年移民與創作

Multimedia artist Gu Xiong, Professor in the Department of Art History, Visual Art and Theory at the University of British Columbia, draws on his forty years of migration experience to explore how individuals continually reshape their identities amid the tension of multiple cultures, while elevating their artistic practice. Meanwhile, he intertwines his person experiences into the historical context of early Chinese migration, revealing vitality and the emergence of hybrid identities in overlooked areas. His works center on personal memory, connecting individual experience, local context, and global flows. 

Denise Fong (PhD), Curator of Urban Cultures from Museum of Vancouver moderates the event and engages in conversation with Prof. Gu. 

多媒體藝術家、UBC 藝術教授顧雄結合自身四十年移民與創作經歷，探討在多重文化張力之中，個體如何不斷重塑身份，並在這一過程中推動藝術創作的發展與創新。述及他如何將個體經驗融合進早期華人移民史的脈絡，在被忽視的空間中，發現生命的鮮活與混合身份的不斷湧現；以及其創作怎樣以個人記憶為核心，連接個體經驗、本地語境與全球流動之間的關係。

本活動主持與對談嘉賓為溫哥華博物館城市文化策展人方靜怡博士。
