Visiting Artist Lecture Series: Chih-Chien Wang

Chih-Chien Wang is a Taiwanese-born, Montreal-based artist whose practice is dedicated to a process of approaching individual perceptions of reality through consideration of the construction of language, meaning, identity, memory and emotion, and examination of the exercise of art making. His work uses photography, video, objects or texts, at times integrating performance and sound. Wang’s recent solo exhibitions could be seen at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin (2016) the Art Gallery of Mississauga (2015), the Darling Foundry in Montreal (2015), Expression in Saint-Hyacinthe (2014), the Musée régional de Rimouski (2013) and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (2012), and he has been included in group exhibitions, including the Jack Shainman Gallery in New York, The Quebec Triennial at the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, the National Gallery of Canada, Leonard and Bina Ellen Art Gallery in Montreal, Zenith Gallery in Beijing, Aperture in New York, Musée de l’Elysée in Lausanne Switzerland.
