SUMMARY:\"Departure\" Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Joseph Gross Gallery is pleased to announce the U.S. premiere of \"Departure\,\" a three-channel video installation by the artist duo Lin + Lam. Shot from the exploratory perspective of a moving car\, bicycle and trains\, the video travels through three postcolonial Asian cities\: Taipei\, Shanghai and Hanoi. The transformation of a road\, a bridge and railways parallels the cycle of construction and destruction that distinguish these sties of occupation.  The impact of modernization and foreign intervention on these urban environments is viewed through different modes of transporation.Lin + Lam's work takes shape in sculptural forms\, full-scale installations\, 16 mm film\, photography\, writing and performance. Since 2001\, they have developed projects that raise questions about nationalism and nationaly identity\, the contingency of memory and the haunting of daily life by the spectre of war\, militarism and socio-political inequities.  Inspired by a particular site\, historical incident or political issue\, their work emerges from the interrelation between current events and residues of the past.
