I'm talking about the @Platea collective and our public art projects carried out in the digital megacity of social media. Please stop by to learn more about some of our recent public art projects and my plans for future projects, including "hopes/dreams/fears", which debuts at FIGMENT NYC.
June 6th, 2009 marks the end of a glorious season of the BUSHWICK READING SERIES -- we're an official Bushwick Open Studios Site! Join us for these festive festivities, which include: 1. Special musical guest Colin Summers, 2. Readings from poetic moguls Nicole Steinberg, Dan Magers, and Parker Phillips, and 3. An extraordinary interdisciplinary panel about the topic of WILD/LIFE. What does that mean, exactly? You'll have to come find out what they have to say. The cast of characters includes:
Clara Jo, Video Artist Nathan Schneider, Writer/Blogger An Xiao, Photographer/Poet Roger Bonair-Agard, Poet
Hi there. I'm An Xiao. I'm an artist, designer and writer An Xiao looking at the intersection of the digital and analog in the 21st century. I photograph, install, perform and tweet and have shown my work in publications and galleries internationally, including the Brooklyn Museum, Yale/Haskins Laboratories, The New York Times and Art in America. I founded and direct @Platea, a global online public art collective, and serve as a contributing columnist for PBS-affiliate Art21 and a contributing writer for the New York Foundation of the Arts and Hyperallergic.
That Was Zen, This Is Tao is my journey in haiblog -- brief, crisp prose about everything and anything that crosses my mind (which is a lot!), as I try to make some sense of the 21st century and bring a little Zen into it. In no particular order, I enjoy writing about the contemporary art world, Web 2.0 and the Internet, Zen and poetry, modern marketing, fashion and style, GTD (Getting Things Done), American politics and anything else of interest. I lead a hectic life, and I often use my iPhone to make updates in subways and parking lots. I also regularly post my most recent photography. I do hope you enjoy your stay! Below are some news updates from my web site.
