Talk by Bruno Zhu
- Bruno Zhu
Join us for a talk by our current artist-in-residence Bruno Zhu to learn more about his practice.
About the Artist
Bruno Zhu works and lives between Portugal and the Netherlands. His practice employs methods that cut, stitch, and write against normative alignments of knowledge production and social reproduction. Mechanisms of desire, identity, and ideology inform Zhu’s work, in which he paraphrases agency, authorship, consumption, and power. His object-driven installations turn the audience into cultural actors who can produce their own meanings. Zhu is a member of A Maior, a curatorial program set in a home furnishings and clothing store in Viseu, Portugal.
