X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Art Talk Tuesday is a monthly conversation
  that invites contemporary artists to discuss their work and the issues su
 rrounding it\, followed by a moderated Q&amp\;A with Brand staff member\, 
 artist and writer Jennifer Remenchik. Art Talk Tuesday artists are selecte
 d to reflect the diversity of the art scene of the greater Los Angeles are
 a.</p>\n<p>Ara Oshagan is a diasporic multi-disciplinary artist\, curator 
 and cultural worker whose practice explores&nbsp\;collective and personal 
 histories of dispossession\, legacies of violence\, identity and (un)imagi
 ned futures. He works in photography\, film\, collage\, installation\, boo
 k arts\, public art and monuments. Vectored by his own personal history\, 
 Oshagan is a documentarian and as well as conceptual artist. A descendant 
 of communities who were deracinated from their indigenous lands by the Arm
 enian Genocide in 1915\, he was born in Lebanon (in diaspora) and displace
 d by civil war as a youth. Oshagan&rsquo\;s work researches and explores t
 he associated visible/notvisible structures of identity\, memory and histo
 ries of site/notsite. His lived experience\, personal and communal history
  are deeply connected to his work. Oshagan lives and works among communiti
 es with histories of multi-generational displacement&mdash\;that have been
  uprooted\, dislocated and become multi-diasporic across time and space. H
 is work is an attempt to articulate the various multi-valiant dimensions o
 f &ldquo\;diasporic presence&rdquo\; and all its attendant ambiguities. Ba
 sed in Los Angeles\, Oshagan is a curator at ReflectSpace Gallery in Glend
 ale Central Library and has published three books of photography (two more
  forthcoming in 2024).</p>\n<p>Art Talk Tuesday is sponsored by the&nbsp\;
