UPDATE as of 11 March 2022:

Due to recent spikes of infection with the new Omicron BA.2 subvariant in Shanghai and the adoption of dynamic campus public health policies by NYU Shanghai, the exhibition related event “Borrowed Impulses: A Creative Writing Workshop” hosted by the Creative Writing program, originally scheduled on 16 March, 17:30-18:45 (UTC+8), has been postponed until further notice. 

In this generative creative writing workshop hosted by the Creative Writing program, open to all members of the NYU Shanghai community, we will respond to the visual art in the exhibition at the ICA Gallery by investigating methods of divination and derivation to invigorate our writing. All attendees will receive a free writing journal.

In English only.

RSVP is required. 

Open to the NYU Shanghai community only.

In conjunction with Close Your Eyes and You Will Know, an exhibition by Yin-Ju Chen and Li-Chun Lin (Marina).

The exhibition Close Your Eyes and You Will Know and related events are presented as the second season of the ICA’s second biennial artist research program, Another Knowledge Is Possible (2021-23), exploring neglected and repressed ways of knowing and the complex politics of knowledge decolonization.
