Governors Island Artist Interivew

Triangle is excited to announce Governors Island Artist Interview with Ariel Kleinberg and Don Hải Phú Daedalus, moderated by Triangle Arts Board Member, John Bjerklie.

Donald Hải Phú Daedalus (b. 1983) grew up in the shadow of the country's largest public observatory—an area so remote and sparsely populated that it served as the first plutonium-processing plant for the Manhattan Project. Shortly after the oldest human remains in North America were discovered near his hometown, Daedalus left to attend the University of Washington, where, coincidentally, the remains were to be held during the decade-long legal dispute between the Kennewick tribe and anthropologists. During that debate, he completed studies in Continental and Applied Philosophy, as well as Interdisciplinary Visual Arts. He makes videos, sculptures, books.

Ariel Kleinberg is a painter and performance artist creating theatrical installations and mythological interventions throughout the city, from the depths of subways to the heights of skyscrapers. She is interested in journeys to the underworld and trances to make humans divine.
