Welcoming Alexandra Chang, the Co-Curator of MAM Research 009: Imagining Justice - Asian American Art Movements, this talk event takes us through the exhibition to highlight how artist collectives and collaboration have been central to the development of Asian American art and activism. In addition, Chang is joined by Yahagi Manabu (Assistant Curator, Mori Art Museum) in a conversation on the intergenerational exhibition’s importance in relation to our current moment. They will discuss how new generations of scholars and researchers are using digital humanities projects to produce, preserve, and distribute knowledge related to this particular history, and why such endeavors have become increasingly important in today’s cultural and academic climate.
