Martes 24 ShuLea Cheang en el MACBA

 

Seminario by Shu Lea Cheang
24.11.09 18h-22h. Free access.
Auditorio MACBA, Barcelona

Hangar invites the world famous artist Shu Lea Cheang to share her secrets of artistic sustainability with the precarious art workers of Barcelona. For the last 25 years Shu Lea has lived exclusively from her art without needing to resort to selling drugs, working in the Post Office or serving in a bar. How has she managed to do it ? This is the question that she will  be attempting to answer in this exclusive seminar open to anybody interested.

Shu Lea will "EXPOSE" her project folders from 2000 to 2010 as she reviews her year by year business of conception, planning, accounting, sketching and scheming. Through this act of random file retrieval, Shu Lea reveals her "behind the scenes" pleasure and desperation and discusses how she managed to 'fuck and get fucked", PROFESSIONALLY!!

Shu Lea will also devote ONE HOUR of the seminar to 'case studies' submitted by members of the public and seminar participants. Submit your case for the seminar study on 'how to be professional" or 'how to fuck it all up'.

To participate write to : activitats@hangar.org
If you wish to submit a case study please include an explication of the project you wish to be studied.

Shu Lea Cheang first lept to world fame with BRANDON (1998-1999), billed as the Guggenheim Museum's first web art commission and I.K.U. (2000),  a self-certified sci-fi porn that labeled her a cyberpunk classic. Since then she has created numerous projects, the most recent being U.K.I during her residence in Hangar in the summer of 2009.
