MEET THE ARTIST at THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION:
October 15, 2009, 7:30pm

In conjunction with Ink Storm, Transformer and Shigeko Bork mu projects are thrilled to be collaborating with The Phillips Collection in the presentation of Jennifer Wen Ma's installation Brain Storm October 15, 2009 - January 3, 2009. Brain Storm is a meditation on live-action ink-painting processes. In the tradition of Chinese landscape painting, the viewer "reads" the painting by traveling through mountain ranges and seasons, rendering a new artistic language of time-based landscape painting. This work was initially commissioned by the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, Spain in 2009.

This presentation of Jennifer Wen Ma's Brain Storm is part of The Phillips Collection's "Intersections" series, a new contemporary art initiative that invites artists to create a work that engages the museum space, and works from the permanent collection.
