Artists In Residence At Sumei Art Center
Two artists from Italy will be part of Sumei Art Center's international artist in residence program this year. They are Emanuele Vara & Salvo Cutaia, filmmakers.

The two artists will be residing in the city of Newark for two months in a residency program at Sumei Art Center, to create a documentary about Newark's industrial history and urbanism. Using their state of the art contemporary techniques they plan to fuse the old and the new into a mind bending, sometimes surreal creation of their version of cities today.

See Dr Wu at ICEPN Television>>

Wen-Hsien Wu was born in 1933 in Shanghai, China. From the age of five, he fled from invading Japanese forces. He was lucky to have escaped the 1938 Nanjing Massacre. He and his family passed through Jiangxi, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong, Guizhou and finally arrived at Sichuan during the war torn years in China. The brutality and suffering he witnessed during this treacherous journey marked his childhood and youth.
