Hung-Chih
Peng presents two videos from his Canine Monk series.
Heart Sutra and Exerpts
from the Holy Bible in Arabic Translation feature the artist’s dog quoting
religious scripture in different languages. Peng's
videos point to the erasure of ethnic difference
as a rejoinder to convergences in contemporary religious
movements.
Canine Monk is presented in conjunction
with Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's international
summit Cities,
Art & Recovery. |
