Tang Teaching Museum Announces ‘No Place to Hide’

Tang Teaching Museum announces new exhibition ‘No Place to Hide,’ opening October 31, 2015

The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery is pleased to announce the Saturday, October 31, 2015 opening of a new exhibition No Place to Hide. The exhibition will be open through Sunday, February 21, 2016.

No Place to Hide brings together three contemporary artists who all address the impact of “being watched.” Hasan Elahi confronts the FBI after being mistaken for a terrorist, Addie Wagenknecht shows how our devices are constantly sending out information to the “cloud,” and Aaron Zinman elegantly reveals just how easy it is to find information about yourself.

These works ask us to consider the myriad ways in which we are all under surveillance, the potential ramifications of this data collection, and how our daily electronic interactions contribute to the growing body of personal information being collected about us.
