OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
In the first talk of the History of Art and Visual Culture research seminar series, curator Erin Li will share insights into Hong Kong’s art ecology through her journey of curating, programming, and brewing new connections at various key art institutions amidst major social upheavals in the past decade.
Currently Asymmetry Curatorial Fellow at Whitechapel Gallery and Delfina Foundation in London, Li will also offer a look at her latest curatorial research on street dance and the process of fermentation. Li’s curatorial projects are interdisciplinary, site-specific, and inspired by everyday emotions, experiences, and philosophies. They place the act of creating resonance through collaborative experiments at the core of her practice.
Back in Hong Kong, Erin Li is Associate Curator at Tai Kwun Contemporary and has worked as Project Researcher and Development Coordinator at Asia Art Archive (Hong Kong) and Art Manager at art restaurant Duddell’s (Hong Kong & London). Among the many exhibitions and art events she organized, she has curated emo gym (2022) and co-curated The Unsung (2021) at Tai Kwun Contemporary. Li is a member of the AICA (International Association of Art Critics), and has published articles on Artforum China, the M+ blog, and the AICA Hong Kong website.
