May 12 Edward Heap of Birds Speaks at PSU

Hachivi Edgar Heap of Birds is a senior arts lecturer, artist and Native American. Multicultural art, 80's and 90's rage, and public art darling, operates within its own aesthetic(s). So just when you thought you had contemporary aesthetics figured, there are those worlds. Rarely do they overlap. In other words, neither would be considered aesthetically successful within the framework of the other. For a harsher view see Dave Hickey. Hachivi understands contemporary aesthetics, perhaps with this lecture he can explain the relationships to the multicultural aesthetic(s) world. He speaks at the PSU Monday lecture series.
