Wu Tsang '10 (M.F.A., Art)
Filmmaker, performance artist, and UCLA Department of Art alum Wu Tsang was awarded a MacArthur Fellowship. Tsang creates new conceptual and visual vocabularies for exploring hidden histories and marginalized narratives in works that collapse the boundaries between documentary and fiction. The MacArthur Fellowship is a $625,000, no-strings-attached grant for individuals who have shown exceptional creativity in their work and the promise to do more. With this award, Tsang joins the community of UCLA Arts MacArthur Fellows including Department of Art alumnae Vija Celmins and Toba Khedoori and Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance faculty Kyle Abraham and Peter Sellars.
