Big City Forum: The Hub at WUHO

Woodbury School of Architecture is excited to announce that Big City Forum will be in residency at WUHO Gallery this fall, with events in October, November, and December.

Big City Forum: The Hub at WUHO
Big City Forum: The Hub at WUHO is designed as a lab for ideas that encourages cross-disciplinary explorations and exchangesbetween various creative disciplines. BCF: The Hub presents three separate collaborative presentations focusing on ideas and social narratives around the concept of space and envisioning our relationship to change both at an intimate, personal level and at the urban scale.

 Soo Kim, Siri Kaur, Christina Ondrus
+ evening of readings curated by Les Figues Press
October 6-31
Opening: Thursday, October 11, 7 p.m.
Literary readings: Wednesday, October 24, 6 p.m.

Part one presents the work of three artists who investigate notions around liminal space and the articulation of experiences or insights that defy precise description. In their own specific ways, each ofthese bodies of work deal with issues of absence and presence and the ways in which we experience time and place. The exhibition will be complimented by an evening of literary readings with LA based writers exploring similar themes in their work.
