新加坡藝術特輯 2013


正當香港藝術市場熱哄哄之時,香港朋友對鄰近地區的藝術又了解幾多?東南亞的當代藝術,對於我們來說,有如盲點。故HKADC在2013年5月專程來到新加坡,直擊報導於5月16日在Jerdela Visual Art Space(Esplanade, Singapore) 開幕的 "重新接轨:缅甸当代摄影展",讓我們一起發掘這些新國度!

新加坡藝術特輯第一集,請來"重新接軌:緬甸當代攝影展"策展人莊吳斌 介紹當中的作品。

第二集訪問"Re-Connection" 缅甸当代摄影展的藝術家Po Po!
第三集訪問"Re-Connection" 缅甸当代摄影展的藝術家Aung Khin Myint!




新加坡特輯最後一擊!帶大家參觀香港藝術家Nadim Abbas在星洲的展覽: "Tetraphilia" , 展現新加坡和香港藝術交流的面貌。



展覽簡介:"随着緬甸踏出改革的第一步,它再次成為國際媒體的焦點。過去幾十年, 翁山素姬扛下緬甸民主的重擔。但是,直到前將軍登盛出任總统後,實質的改革才正式啟動。

與此同時,東南亞當代藝術在這幾年越来越受重視。然而,當代藝術和其定義正持續改變。和其他地方的藝術家一樣,緬甸最优秀的藝術工作者對世界藝術的發展和論述相當關注。但他们也清楚意識到,仰光正在蜕變。

这次的展覽為大家推介七位不同年代的緬甸藝術家。他们对摄影的了解和诠释截然不同。

虽然緬甸长期给人的印象是个封闭的国度,其人民的身份认同依然受环球化、世界潮流、和文宣的影响。Po Po和Nyein Chan Su用作品探讨相关问题。Tun Win Aung, Nge Lay和Aung Khin Myint的作品则富个人色彩。他们透过摄影勾起我们面对生老病死的无助感。而象Kaung 緬甸在这几年的改变。他们并非被动地记录这一切,而是通过摄影工作积极地塑造、挑战緬甸的民主自由。"  (http://www.facebook.com/events/366635343441613/

策展人莊吳斌其實常到香港舉辦藝術活動,如2012年8月在光影作坊的攝影展「印尼華人回教徒 (2007-2009)」,今年4月26日在Asia Art Archive舉辦一個有關柬埔寨的藝術講座 等。

HKArts Discovery Channel with James Wong on HKADC and M+ at 55th Venice Biennale



Brief notes: 
James Wong discussing his views on the collaboration between HKADC (HK Arts Development Council) and M+ to represent Hong Kong to participate in the 55th Venice Biennale, and updating our audience about his lawsuit with HKADC since 2003.

1. Must have a public forum as soon as possible. Such a forum should invite the members (especially those who were elected by local artists/cultural workers) in the arts council to disclose the details within the meetings of HKADC and let the public know how this decision to work with M+ was made, so that the public can make a judgement on the conducts of these public institutes etc...It is especially good to host such forum before the Legislative council's election.....

2. His lawsuit with HKADC from 2003 is not over yet. He still has not "lost" the competition to represent Hong Kong in the 50th Venice Biennale.....

HKADC with artist Wilson Shieh 石家豪: HKADC and M+ at 55th Venice Biennale



藝術搜索頻道記者引言:
James Wong 在之前HKADC的訪問,(提出要在藝發局和M+生米煮成熟飯前,就快D開論壇,公開ADC攪什麼,包括交邀請與會者告訴公眾,ADC是怎樣通過與M+合作的建議。業界在

­搜集更多資料後,才能更有效作出判斷。
本集受訪嘉賓石家豪也提出很好的建議:雖然現在米已成炊,但應組織一個監察委員會,監察藝發局和M+的合作細節,諸如財政運用的細節,以便為往後揀選香港代表參與國際展覽

­,訂立清楚合理的準則.....


Brief Notes:

1. Set up a monitoring group---
Hong Kong artist Wilson Shieh thinks even if HKADC is working with M+, it is important to set up a group to monitor how they work at the 55th Venice Biennale, e.g. how they spend the money... etc... Such a monitoring group should also be invited to give suggestion on the future model of the selection of HK representatives in Venice Biennale. A more transparent structure should be set up in order to help HK arts development.

2.To use the Legco election to help the problems in the art and cultural scene be exposed to the public through mass media
Supporting Mr. Chow Chun Fai to run for the Legco "Sports, Performing Arts, Culture and Publication Functional Constituency," Mr. Shieh actually does not support the existence of functional constituency in Legco. However, he does not want someone who is not speaking for the people in the field to be representing them again. Besides, it also is an opportunity for the people in the arts and culture to voice out the problems they have, and bring about a wider discussion with the public (through mass media) about our cultural rights and cultural vision.

HKADC with 鄧國騫 Tang Kwok Hin



This is an interview with Mr. Tang Kwok Hin about the collaboration of HKADC and M+ on the Hong Kong exhibition in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013.

Brief notes:
1. The role of HKADC is to explain the management and development of the decision making process for the collaboration with M+, making it clearer and easier to accept for the public. The sudden announcement of the changes made gave an impression of "black-box operation", which is inappropriate and problematic for a governmental institution like HKADC.

2. The involvement of M+ is interesting because the status of M+, with the support from the Hong Kong government and its international power and reputation, it seems to be so strong that their decisions made are impassable. So, Lee Kit, as a representative artist for Hong Kong in the 55th Venice Biennale selected through the new procedures, has to bare in mind his role in the event.

3. Communication between the local artistic and cultural scene and international curatorial institutes like M+ is still very limited.

---Tang Kwok Hin (A contemporary visual artist in Hong Kong, winner of Hong Kong Arts Development Awards 2010, Young Artist Award of Visual Arts 2011)

HKADC with 周俊輝 Chow Chun Fai



This is an interview with Mr. Chow Chun Fai about the collaboration of HKADC and M+ on the Hong Kong exhibition in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013.

Brief notes:

1. Focus is not just on how much money is being used, instead the balance between openness and fairness. He understands the difficulties and restrains HKADC has faced, and the collaboration with M+ will is beneficial, but HKADC has failed to publically and clearly explain how and why this decision has been made.

2. It does not mean that decision making process has to be directed entirely by people outside the institution, but sufficient communication and consultation from public is essential. Instead of just reporting the details of how resources are being divided, HKADC should bare in mind and explain to the public their aims, motives and selection conditions with proficiency, and even react and analyze more on principal issues, like the control of Obscene and Indecent Articles Ordinance and Copyright Ordinance.

---Chow Chun Fai (A contemporary visual artist in Hong Kong, winner of 'Hong Kong Arts Centre 30th Anniversary Awards Grand Prize' and the 'Sovereign Asian Art Prize')

HKADC with 黃國才 Kacey Wong



This is an interview with Mr. Kacey Wong about the collaboration of HKADC and M+ on the Hong Kong exhibition in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013.

Brief notes:

1. Expresses the opposition from the art and cultural scene in Hong Kong for the changes of curators and artists selection scheme for the 55th Venice Biennale: from an open call submission process with public consultation, to disclosing any details of how and why decisions had been made is a form of decline, and is problematic when the financial source are mainly from tax payers in Hong Kong.

2. The artistic and cultural rights should also be in the hands of curators and artists in Hong Kong: Decision should be made under public consultation and high transparency.

3. Compared how decision is being made between the Venice International Architecture Biennale and the 55th Venice Biennale: The Hong Kong Institute of Architects was being invited to form a curation team and encouraged open submission of curatorial proposals. In this case, a comparison can be made between contestants, which enabled a fairer decision making process. 4. Looking forward to the explanation by M+ and HKADC on the decision made this year.

---Kacey Wong (A contemporary visual artist based in Hong Kong, winner of Best Artist Award in 2010, participant of 11th Venice International Architecture Biennale Exhibition in 2008)

HKADC with 黃照達 Justin Wong



This is an interview with Mr. Justin Wong about the collaboration of HKADC and M+ on the Hong Kong exhibition in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013.

Brief notes:
1. Since there is a drastic change to the decision making process, from open call submission to disclosing any details of how decisions had been made, and explanation is essential: HKADC has to explain and convince the public about how the original open call method is inefficient, leading to the need for sudden change, but in this incident HKADC has failed to achieve that. HKADC need to have a long-term consideration for the decision they have made this time.

2. The amount of money assigned for this commission has doubled compared to the previous years, HKADC should list the details of resource distribution to the public.

3. M+ is in a passive situation, the main problem is on HKADC.

劉小康:香港政府從不缺錢 (只缺視野) Freeman Lau



HKADC with Freeman Lau about the collaboration of HKADC and M+ on the Hong Kong exhibition in the 55th Venice Biennale:

Brief notes:
Freeman Lau agrees to increase the budget for the HK exhibition in Venice Biennale, since he witnessed the situation in last year's show with Frog King in Venice. However, the extra money probably does not have to come from another public institute. (for example, it can be directly from the government/ HAB) In other words, the ability to give out HKD$5,000,000 should not be considered as one of the reasons or criteria to select a group or an individual to become the curator for the upcoming exhibit.
