Dr Malcolm McNeill (Director of the Postgraduate Diploma in Asian Art & Senior Lecturer in Arts Education at SOAS), explores the interplay between major exhibitions and individual artists in shaping the development of contemporary Chinese ink art. McNeill will present a case that ink is deceptively, perhaps uniquely mutabile, as both a medium and a point of departure for the exploration of new ideas that respond to and reflect our current historical moment.
The lecture will be followed by a Q&A with Dr Malcolm McNeill and Evangeline Li of 3812 Gallery.
