JASON WING's work is at the Kluge-Ruhe Collection, which opens a new exhibition on May 18 of contemporary Aboriginal art titled People of Substance. This exhibition includes a variety of site-specific installations by the Jason, including Blacktown Dreaming, a bed composed of hypodermic syringes.
Jason’s visit May 13 – 19 includes the installation of People of Substance, the presentation of an Artist Talk on May 17 at 7:00 pm, and an Opening Reception on May 18 from 5:30 – 7:30 pm.
The Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection of the University of Virginia is the only museum in the United States dedicated to the exhibition and study of Australian Aboriginal art.
After leaving Charlottesville, Wing will participate in a seminar presented at New York University by the International Network for Diasporic Asian Art Research (INDAAR) on the future of Asian art.
