“The players explain about their gender reversing performances, emphasize how to make and train their role on stage, and reveal the crossing and traversing gender through their endless training and performing against so-called given gender, appearing on the empty stage/ in front of the closed curtain where only stage-like-place without any show. This empty stage is going to be filled with their performative playing, that is going to be a ‘cue’, how the gender system is constructed with performance, which is copy-able. Moreover, it is metaphorically alludes, gender has never been natural.”(siren eun young jung)

Digital Break: New Perspectives on Taiwanese Moving Image

Curated by WANG Wen-chi

The subject of Taiwan Program is “Digital Break”. The project attempts to remove the viewer from full-on media exposure, so as to ask questions about contemporary time and space, perception, memory, and eternity through a reflexive discourse in digital environments via hybrid texts. All 7 selected Taiwanese artists grew up in the digital era, and their works can be seen as responses to contemporary phenomena associated with digital technology, whilst creating a dialogue across the boundary of film and video art. Through their work, the artists ask us to analyze our intimacy with the organic world, our feelings about the world around us, and the moment that we are experiencing.

ORIENTATIONS: BOUNDARIES SURVEYED

curated by Linda C.H. Lai on initiatives in contemporary video art in the Asia Pacific

This is no comprehensive survey of the roots and histories of video art. Orientations is rather a response to the standard story of video art in Europe and North America, which spins off familiar, great early video artists such as the Vasulkas, Nam-June Paik, Beryl Korot, Mary Lucier and Peter Weibel. The six artists in Orientations are those I have met and with whom I had conversations in the past year — from Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia. The eight works assembled here are the “documents” of our chance encounters. I take stock of the diverse conceptual sources, artistic roots, experimental modes and personal commitment they exemplify. The 60-minute program here, therefore, maps a trajectory of positions, intentions and inventive desires for how video art has been practiced and used.
