 BatesNow | 5/13/2004 | Bates College Museum of Art, Maine College of Art offer joint exhibition of major Chinese artist
LEWISTON, Maine -- In a collaboration unusual for Maine's academic museums, the Bates College Museum of Art and the Institute of Contemporary Art at Maine College of Art, Portland, will jointly present an exhibition by Wenda Gu, one of the most important artists to emerge from China in recent decades.
Gu's idealistic intimation of an ultimate, corporeal and spiritual unification of humanity will be expressed in the spacious, ascendant monument at Bates -- a "temple" of hair -- where the steles at ICA convey poetic gibberish to frustrate viewers' attempts to secure their fundamental meaning and coherence.
A consortium of art college museums has organized the exhibition as a model to encourage collaboration among art colleges nationally.
