Before I Was a Critic I Was a Human Being (Book*hug)

Description

A reading followed by a Q&A featuring a conversation with author Amy Fung and Dunlop Art Gallery's Director/Curator, Jennifer Matotek.

Additional Information

This is the debut collection of creative nonfiction essays by Amy Fung. In it, Fung takes a closer examination at Canada’s mythologies of multiculturalism, settler colonialism, and identity through the lens of a national art critic.

Amy Fung is a writer and curator born in Kowloon, Hong Kong, and spent her formative years in and around Edmonton on Treaty 6 Territory. Her multifarious curatorial projects have spanned exhibitions, cinematic and live presentations, as well as discursive events across Canada and abroad. Before I Was a Critic I Was a Human Being is her first book.
