In anticipation of the implementation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement, a free-trade agreement designed to promote trade and regional economic integration among Canada and 11 other Pacific Rim countries, the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada and the Greater Victoria Art Gallery is pleased to present 'Video Art, Social Change and the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement', an exhibit of video art by artists from various TPP countries. The exhibit’s curator, Haema Sivanesen, is in Vancouver to show video clips of the exhibit to highlight the artist's work, and will discuss how they have researched and engaged with a long history of trans-Pacific and trans-American trade and exchange. She will be joined by one of the exhibit’s artists, Lucy Aukafolau of New Zealand.
This event is open to the public.
