Trans-Pacific transmissions : video art across the Pacific

Sivanesan, Haema, 1972- (curator,, editor.). Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, (issuing body,, host institution.).

Summary: "Trans-Pacific Transmissions: Video Art Across the Pacific brings together the work of artists from around the Pacific Rim to examine a broad history of trans-Pacific exchange as it has captured the imaginations of artists working in video. Anticipating the implementation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement, a free-trade agreement designed to promote “regional economic integration”, this exhibition examines how artists have researched and engaged with a long history of trans-Pacific and trans-American trade and exchange."--AGGV website.
