The Corner Gallery presents:

Transparent or Not

The Corner Gallery of Pacific Northwest College of Art, Portland, Oregon presents Hsueh Wei’s new work Transparent or Not: A Visual Art & Cross-Cultural Study of Contemporary Urban China from March 4 to April 3, 2011.

This project focuses on a specific women’s style of footwear, to explore the aesthetic preferences, philosophical beliefs, and cultural characteristics of contemporary urban China.  In addition, this project portrays the work force of “made in China” in the phenomenon of globalization within the backdrop of China’s urbanization.

Hsueh Wei will give a lecture on her work on March 9, 2011, 12:30pm in Room 101 at PNCA.
