Join the Spring 2024 Opening Celebration at TUAG, held at the prestigious Aidekman Arts Center in Medford, MA. This special event is a must-attend for art enthusiasts seeking an engaging and thought-provoking experience. Featuring the acclaimed artist Kenneth Tam and Daisy Nam, director of Ballroom Marfa, this celebration promises a public conversation that delves into the captivating world of Tam's one-person exhibition, "Kenneth Tam: Standing in Soft Formation."

Tam's exhibition combines his latest choreographed videos and sculptures, creating a unique dialogue that explores the historical and present-day tropes of Anglo-American masculinity and their impact on Asian American identities. With his interdisciplinary approach, Tam delves into themes such as the performance of masculinity, the transformative potential of ritual, and expressions of intimacy within groups. Through humor and pathos, he reveals the performative and unstable nature of identity, often highlighting tenderness and vulnerability in unexpected settings.

Daisy Nam, the executive director and curator at Ballroom Marfa, will join Tam in this conversation. With her extensive experience in the arts, Nam brings a wealth of knowledge and insight to the event. Previously serving as the assistant director at the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, Harvard University, she co-edited the publication "Best! Letters from Asian Americans in the arts" with Paper Monument in 2021.
