POVZETKI (pdf)

Siddharta Perez: Prompts: Curatorial Strategies in Facilitating and Sustaining Knowledge Resources

The presentation looks into process-based strategies in exhibition-making as a way of dealing with lack of infrastructure support in knowledge production in the Philippines. Case studies will include how curatorial modes of exhibition accommodate activating the audience’s accountability to also contribute, how we negotiate with different sites of power represented by stakeholders of an exhibition and other modes of extending the life of an exhibition.

Isabel Ching: Frames of Conceptualism from Southeast Asia

While considered as an important vector leading to the plurality of artistic practices globally, “conceptualism” could appear to have only registered frail trails in Southeast Asia. How do we understand, discuss and frame the conceptualisms of specific localities in the region? Looking at a case study each from Myanmar, the Philippines and Singapore, we try to speculate about the fraught, sometimes contested, meanings of conceptualism(s) in history and the efforts made today to reclaim or reanimate their legacies.

Antares Gomez Bartholome: Curation as Cultural Work

The presentation explores the relationship of curatorial work and political struggle within the context of the Philippines. It briefly tracks the development of art practices and discourses alongside the National Democratic movement in the Philippines from the 1970s onward, and explores how curatorial practice figures in, and is perhaps challenged and refigured by, the varied approaches to artistic production, presentation, and distribution involved in the broader frame of cultural work undertaken by the National Democratic movement in the present.

Moe Satt: Short Introduction of Myanmar Performance Art

Overviews the history of Myanmar performance art that started in the mid-90s, identifying who they were and what kind of issues they dealt with. The presentation also locates differences and parallelism between the first and second generation of performance artists. Likewise what is the contexts of indoor performances as contrasted from the gallery sites and other outdoor/ more public venues.
