PCAI is glad to announce PCAI collection artist Wu Tsang participates in the exhibition “What a Wonderful World: An Audiovisual Poem,” edited by Udo Kittelmann.
What a Wonderful World: An Audiovisual Poem, transforms the Variety Arts Theater into an immersive survey of time-based art spanning more than a century.
Presented by the Julia Stoschek Foundation in its first U.S. exhibition, the show unfolds across eight levels and brings together early cinema, video art, and contemporary moving-image works.
The exhibition invites viewers to experience film and video not as linear narratives, but as atmospheric encounters shaped by history, politics, and spectacle.
Amongst the selected artworks, Wu Tsang documents the Silver Platter, one of Los Angeles’s oldest bars serving the gay, queer, and trans Latinx community, in her 2012 feature film, Wildness.
