In lieu of our scheduled opening for The Immigrant Artist Biennial's central exhibition "Here, Together!" which had been anticipated for March 18, EFA Project Space has instead invited participating artists, curator Katya Grokhovsky and TIAB team members to present a Zoom-based roundtable discussion with the public. At a time when we are witnessing extreme anti-immigrant sentiment, coupled with a global rhetoric of exclusion, discrimination, and the closing of borders, The Immigrant Artist Biennial calls for urgent unity, visibility, and criticality, by facilitating a platform for cultural exchange. The invited artists will share thoughts and work which touch on issues of identity, the meaning of home and place, and the doubly precarious position of living as immigrant cultural workers within a pandemic that transcends borders.

This program is part of a series of online talks, workshops, and screen-shares presented in lieu of the formal exhibition program for The Immigrant Artist Biennial 2020 (TIAB).
