Trans.ient Panel Discussion
Response and reflection to the transgender curated group show, Trans.ient.
Jules Rosskam, Oli Rodriguez, Malic Amayla, and Genevieve Erin O'Brien, Moderater- Kean O’Brien.
April 15, 430pm @ CalArts 24700 McBean Pkwy, Valencia.
April 16, 11am @ Outpost 1268 N. Ave 50, Los Angeles, CA 90042
Outpost for Contemporary Art, in conjunction with Public Address Los Angeles Vía Pública, and CalArts, are hosting a panel discussion to address issues of visibility and sharing in the trans community. This is in concert with the traveling curated group show Trans.ient.
Trans.ient establishes a space where trans/queer work can be seen in relationship to itself instead of staging singular examples of Otherness in most contemporary group shows.
Presented in Uhaul trucks, Trans.ient employs the metaphor of transition, an ever flowing and changing space -- the temporary space of movement and dialogue around trans visibility. The show drives trans discourse into the public sphere, which creates true visibility. The show began its tour at CalArts on March 17th, 2011. In conjunction with this opening a catalog/zine was published profiling the participating artists and including trans theory writing.
This panel includes four of the artists in the first iteration of Trans.ient and will be moderated by curator, Kean O'Brien. Each artist will present their work and participate in a conversation about what happens when trans work is shown in relationship to itself.
Trans.ient's next stop will be May 14th at 1421 Allison Avenue in Echo Park and in locations to be announced on the West Coast during June. In August and September the show will take form in the Midwest. New artists will join at each stop.
Yours truly,
Tranny Truck Train Conductor/Curator Kean O'Brien
