Excerpt from Shu-mei Shih's 11/15/12 Katz Lecture, "From World History to World Art: Reflections on New Geographies of Feminist Art in Asia."
How might we conceive of world art and the place of Asian feminist art within it? What new geographies are possible when we consider Asian feminist art on the world scale? Shu-mei Shih explores these questions in her lecture. In this clip, she discusses three artists in the context of what she calls "the unorthodox genealogy of feminist cosmopolitanism of Asian America": Patty Chang, Trinh T. Minh-ha, and Theresa Cha.
