The Schedule of the 22nd AIR
Play Under is a learning group exploring the language of image cultures. It was established in Shanghai in 2020. The group is committed to providing a relaxing environment for discussion on images and the forms of practice include translation, writing, offline activities, publications, and artists collaboration projects.
"Play under" is to explore the possibility that we treat practice and communication in a relaxed way. It is also self-evident that we are still in an established and relatively closed system. And the image is paradoxical: it seems to be right and it may also be wrong.
【Artist-in-Residence】
In 2016, the University initiated the Artist-in-Residence Programme to create an artistic atmosphere on campus and to elevate student's aesthetic taste. We regularly invite top artists from various fields to reside on campus, create artworks and hold workshops with students.
The programme may last 5-10 days or 1-2 months. Artists will work with or guide students to create or appreciate artworks through workshop or lectures. Artists will also take into account resources available off campus to contribute towards our development.
