Centraal Museum invited artist Jon Rafman to add a new chapter to his work Dream Journal (2016-19) as a part of the exhibition The Tears of Eros on Surrealist artist Moesman. In collaboration with the HKU and Centraal Museum we are excited to present a special screening/lecture by Jon Rafman with a Q&A.
About Jon Rafman:
In his video films and installations, Canadian artist Jon Rafman (1981, Montreal) explores the social effects of digital media. The artist is fascinated by how the boundless possibilities of the Internet and virtual platforms affect and redefine our behaviour, social life, and even personal identity. In his work he oscillates between wit, melancholy and alienation. Rafman is regarded as one of the leading artists of the digital age, and has a huge online following.
