Panel Discussion with Sanctuary City Artists moderated by borderless & Gallery Walk-Thru
MONDAY, MAY 16, 2022 7:00PM
JOIN US FOR A PUBLIC PANEL DISCUSSION AS PART OF OUR EXHIBITION, Sanctuary City: Three Artists Explore the Refugee Experience in New York City. Around the world today, migration stories are at once deeply personal and share common realities. Artists are in a unique position to provoke the lived complexities of being a refugee and to change mindsets in society. Using the artwork in the exhibition as a starting point, the artists Shimon Attie, Catalina Antonio Granados, and Zac Hacmon will discuss their work, personal experiences, and relationships with refugees in the US within the context of the larger global migration experience.
The artists will be joined in discussion with members of borderless: Stephan Said, Anushay Said, and Johanna Taylor. borderless is a value-driven media start-up and movement featuring everyday expressions of cultural resistance around the world and bringing them together through a social network and platform. Through collaborative programs, borderless facilitates a dialogue on global connections to local issues.
