In warping our experiences of time, the pandemic has drawn attention to the unstable nature of how we relate past with present.<\/p>\n<p>In\u00a0<i>ArtAsiaPacific<\/i>\u2019s March\/April 2021 issue, we spotlight two artists whose conceptions of time reveal the messy entanglements between historic and contemporary realms. For our cover Feature, associate editor Ophelia Lai examines the practice of Beijing-based Wang Tuo, whose films often present parallel realities. In\u00a0<i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.atelierauction.com\/globalupdates\">Symptomatic Silence of Complicit Forgetting<\/a>\u00a0<\/i>(2019), for example, a Red Guard narrates a ghost story about a scholar who commits suicide because his mother had died before he could repay his filial debt. Meanwhile, on screen, the life of a writer in contemporary China unfolds, revealing uncanny resonances between him and the scholar. More recently, Wang has become interested in shamanism as a model for accessing multidimensional views of time and place. This has inspired his latest two projects, focused on the 1948 Siege of Changchun. \u201cThe real object of my practice is history. I take the form of the shaman when I look at those moments in history. I fly up and see a great span of time and space down below,\u201d he tells Lai.<\/p>\n<p>Istanbul-based Hera B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f\u00e7\u0131yan, the subject of our second Feature, by deputy editor HG Masters, adopts a similarly expansive perspective of historical time. Looking closely at the architectural structures of cities that have experienced seismic changes in populations, B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f\u00e7\u0131yan traces nearly forgotten tales through her sculptures, installations, videos, and drawings. The flowing, serpentine trajectories of fabrics, lines, and marble tiles across her diverse works allude to the artist\u2019s notion of \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AtelierAuctionsg\">aquamorphology<\/a>,\u201d which, as she explains, is \u201cabout the \u2018fluid, aquatic nature of memory\u2019 that \u2018can simultaneously purify, divide, connect, heal, and destroy.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Up Close,\u00a0<i><span class=\"caps\">AAP<\/span><\/i>\u2019s editors highlight recent productions, including Lu Yang\u2019s video-performance staged at\u00a0<span class=\"caps\">ACMI<\/span>\u00a0Melbourne,\u00a0<i>Delusional World\u00a0<\/i>(2020), featuring a dancer whose movements controlled virtual characters navigating animated hellscapes. We also examine Cian Dayrit\u2019s design for a sail advocating for the rights of fisherfolk in the Manila Bay, and Yang Fudong\u2019s meditative, multimedia series<i>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AtelierAuctionsg\">Endless Peaks<\/a>\u00a0<\/i>(2020), displayed at his 2020\u201321 solo exhibition at ShanghArt Gallery in Shanghai. Rounding out the Features, Inside Burger Collection delineates the work of photographer Paul Hutchinson through an essay and artist interview, by curators June Drevet and Sylvia Metz, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>In Essays, writer and curator Godfre Leung brings into conversation two exhibitions that were recently presented in Vancouver: \u201cThird Realm,\u201d which highlighted decolonization and heterogeneity as two important features of postwar Asia; and \u201cSoundings: An Exhibition in Five Parts,\u201d an inquiry into how musical scores can be used for decolonization. Leung asks whether \u201ca productive dialogue can be held between Asian art in its worldstage moment and Indigenous artists, who, while in a moment of unprecedented visibility, are still living under active colonization.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Profiles section features Iraqi-Kurdish artist Hiwa K, who tells contributor Frances Arnold about his move back to Kurdistan after two decades of living in Germany, and his new, ecologically focused projects rooted in his homeland. Seoul desk editor Andy St. Louis discusses multimedia artist Min Oh\u2019s deconstructions of performance tropes, and managing editor Chloe Chu traces Taipei-based Au Sow Yee\u2019s film series, which locate the imprints of Cold War ideologies on visual culture.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere in the issue, the Seoul-based collective Listen to the City pen an article for The Point about the impact of Covid-19 on people with disabilities and how we might reconceive urban communities to create more resilient post-pandemic cities. In Dispatch, we hear from Ana Vukadin in Rome about how the local arts community is devising strategies not only to survive but to thrive, despite an infrastructure that was crumbling long before the pandemic hit. For One on One, artist Wong Kit Yi pays tribute to dealer and writer Michael Findlay, whose time-hopping art historical accounts have inspired Wong\u2019s projects, the most recent of which includes a \u201ca jet-lag-inducing patch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"last-child\">Lastly, for Where I Work, New York desk editor Mimi Wong visited the Brooklyn studio of Chitra Ganesh, whose paintings, drawings, and videos collide age-old mythologies with futurist motifs such as faraway planets and nebulae. As the works of Ganesh, Wang, and B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f\u00e7\u0131yan show, the past inevitably influences the present, but in each moment of encounter, there is also the potential to break from established histories and imagine the world anew.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source\uff1ahttp:\/\/artasiapacific.com\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It feels like it was both a century ago and just yesterday when news of a mysterious coronavirus first started to spread across the globe.
