He is also recognized for his work as a writer--earlier this year, he received the 2008 Art Journal Award from the College Art Association for his essay "The Look of Law," a theoretical introduction he published to accompany an exhibition of the same name he curated at the University Art Gallery in 2006. Leung's Guggenheim fellowship will take place during the 2009 calendar year, during which he plans to work on several projects, including a group of essays based on his meditation on the legacy of Marcel Duchamp as an ethical discourse, and a new opera in collaboration with British composer Luke Stoneham, for which Leung will spend part of the year abroad in London and Berlin.
