TICKETS: FREE. Artist Reception, 6:00pm Friday May 9
Lecture by artist Beili Liu, 2:00pm Saturday May 10

Presented by the Chinese Cultural Center

Artist Beili Liu's Lure is inspired by the myth of red thread in Chinese legend. Folklore says lovers are connected by an invisible red thread around their ankles. When it is pulled, the lovers come closer and eventually find each other. Lure #1 and Lure #2 are two installations that both borrow from the red thread tale.
