Ana-Cha Art Collective Showcase In Smith Gallery

Ana-Cha Art Collective will showcase their work April 6–14 in Smith Gallery in the Joe Rosenfield ’25 Center.

The opening reception will be at 4:15 p.m. Thursday, April 6, in the gallery.

Ana-Cha is a collective of artists, film-makers, and scholars, together exploring the politics in and of art, says Hanky Song ’17. "Through the eruption of collective creative power, we aim to deconstruct existing modes of representation constructed within phallocentric & Eurocentric logic, and materialize alternative ways of seeing and knowing through our own marginalized subjectivities.

"We recognize the intimate relations between art, knowledge, and power, and how our forms of art-making are informed by sociohistorical processes shaping how meanings and pleasures are reproduced in our engagement with art. Through our meetings, we encourage and challenge each other to examine the ideological and epistemological work that inform our own creative practices."

The exhibit is free and open to the public.
