This exhibition of photographs and videos by Fiona Tan (born in Indonesia, living in Amsterdam) is the first major presentation of her work in the U.S.
Whether drawing on old photographs, 17th-century Dutch painting, or 19th-century orientalist architecture, her conceptual and aesthetic approach adds a dimension to understanding Asian art and culture today. The NAF supports an educational program, Gallery Conversations in Identity and Immigration in connection with the exhibition. Invited speakers are Michael Ondaatje, Gary Snyder and Okwui Enwezor.
