Let’s celebrate Colleen Asper! I curated Performing Pictures Workshop at Pari Passu Gallery with Colleen’s work as a conceptual and physical anchor. On Sunday 31 October she debuted Echo, a collaboration with artist Julie Harting, and performances will continue every Sunday through the end of November 2021. (Tickets are available here). Here is a talk I did with her in the Old Era. Brace yourself. She’s brilliant.
