Artist Talk: deSAR x Andrew Luk

DE SARTHE GALLERY is pleased to announce an artist talk with de Sarthe Artist Residency (deSAR)‘s first resident artist Andrew Luk and the curator and exhibitions manager of HOCA, Lauren Every-Wortman, on Saturday, 5 August, 4pm-5pm. The conversation between Luk and Every-Wortman will revolve around the evolution of Luk’s new artwork for the residency and how his use of the gallery space aggressively challenges the conventional transition of dynamics between artists’ studios and galleries.

(The talk will be conducted in English)
