March 9, 4:00 PM–6:00 PM

Brian House and Sue Huang of the internationally exhibiting media arts collaborative Knifeandfork will be at Franklin Street Works on Saturday, March 9 from 4-6pm for “Knifeandfork: Brian House and Sue Huang in Conversation.” In an hour-long dialogue, House and Huang will draw upon 14 years of a collaborative practice in a conversation about clocks, Astro-Turf, Rashomon, audience, architecture, 200 golf clubs, clouds, sound, histories, drawing and drumming, European grants, and how what goes around goes around again. The conversation will be followed by an audience Q & A and a wine reception. This free, public event is sponsored in part by the Stamford Community Arts Partnership Program (CAPP) Grant .

“Knifeandfork: Brian House and Sue Huang in Conversation” is exhibition programming for Franklin Street Works group exhibition “Collective Action Archive: Redux,” which includes materials from Knifeandfork. The show is the newest addition to the non-profit contemporary art space’s ongoing exploration of intersections between art and activism, featuring materials from more than 30 U.S. artist/activist collectives. It is on view from February 9 – September 8, 2019.

The collaborative has exhibited at MOCA, Los Angeles; the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati; Rhizome at the New Museum, New York; the Beall Center for Art + Technology, Irvine; and Kulturhuset, Stockholm, among others. House holds a PhD in computer music and multimedia from Brown University, and he is currently a Mellon Associate Research Scholar at Columbia GSAPP’s Center for Spatial Research.
