Tue, Aug 21, 6:30 pm • Screening Room • FREE with gallery admission
The realities of foreign wars are constantly concealed or complicated by a barrage of media entertainment outlets. How does one go about trying to see the invisible? What does a visual language of the disappeared look like? Join Dark Matters: Artists See the Impossible exhibition artist, activist and experimental geographer Trevor Paglen in a presentation of his work. Explore the visibility of the unseen, including Paglen’s The Black Sites series, which unveils top secret military and internment facilities in the United States and Afghanistan. A question and answer session will follow with YBCA’s Director of Visual Arts, René de Guzman.
