#23 Michael Jordan
Launch Event: 5.30-8.30pm Wednesday 18 September
Only a title so erroneous and nonsensical could serve to unite a new generation of international artists.
Drawing on the intensive research, dialogues and interactions that have characterised their MA studies, 38 graduate students will present their work in three locations across Kingston University’s Knight’s Park Campus. Working across a range of media including painting, sculpture, drawing, performance, photography, and experimental film and video, these artists have emerged at a historical moment in which notions of the image and the object have been transformed by a new digital reality, and in which art and its contexts demand new energy and thought.
Exhibiting artists: Ox Art [Annabel Pettigrew, Robert MacPherson], Jason Andrescavage, Barry Amey, Abeer Bajandouh, Sera Bal, Yi-Chao Chen, Jamie Crawford, Eleonora Divizia, Gazmend Ejupi, Sarahjane England, Ekatarina Granova, Begoña García-Alén,Yu-Chu Hsu, Kiril Kovachev, UJ Lee, Wenzhe Li, Rujarak Luekiatanun, Stephanie Luker, Jingxi Luo, Caroline Marceron, Mariana Melo, Margarita Mena Macedo, Ali Mousavi, Jushima Mardushaj, Sevan Nigogosian, Shirine Osseiran, Georgia Patsouraki, Anne Petersen, Fern Reay, Geraldine Swayne, Setareh Mojtahed Soleimani, Cybil Scott, Goeun Song, Lang Tu, Jirawut Ueasungkomsate, Haoxiang Zhao, Yujie Zhang.
