Each year, New York University hosts an acclaimed artist to hold residency with its Asian/Pacific/American Institute. Artists-in-Residence are invited to bring their notoriety, artistic work, and history of involvement with the Asian/Pacific American community to NYU. The Artist-in-Residence uses his/her time at A/P/A to create important new work, artistic retrospectives, forums, or conferences. Scholars, fellow artists, and community members familiar or new to the artist's work, gain a unique opportunity to engage with the Artist-in-Residence within a university setting.
The Artistic Director of TheatreWorks Singapore, Keng Sen Ong has engaged in intense cross-cultural work with fellow Asian artists for six years. He is known for his rejection of authenticity and his embracing of multiple realities and hybridity within Asia. Initially trained as a lawyer, Keng Sen has recently been appointed director of a new arts festival in Berlin called In Transit , focusing on artistic processes; new conversations rather than products in the festival market.
Keng Sen Ong joins A/P/A Studies as both Artist-in-Residence and adjunct professor from January to May 2002. He is teaching a course entitled, "Multiple Realities, Peeling Away the Rhetoric in International Arts: The Local in the International, The National in the International, The Superpower in the International," cross listed with the Art & Public Policy Program at NYU.
