ArtReview Asia Magazine Spring 2024 Zurück Ausgabe

ArtReview Asia’s Spring issue considers the personal, from Aki Sasamoto’s probes into life’s eccentricities, to Heecheon Kim’s videogame-influenced works blurring the real and the virtual, Glenn Ligon’s body of work reinventing identity and the late Wang Ya-Hui’s poetic inquiries into life and death. There’s also an interview with scholar Xuelei Huang about her new book, a modern history of smell in China; columns by Martin Herbert on pleasure in the artworld, Suraj Yengde on collective memory, Max Crosbie-Jones on the literary scene in Southeast Asia, Deepa Bhasthi on the politics of food in India and Prabda Yoon on a sombre collaboration between Min Tanaka and Kohei Nawa. Plus reviews of shows including the 1st Taiwan International Austronesian Art Triennial, Thailand Biennale, Taipei Biennial; movies Evil Does Not Exist and Flowers of Belau; and books about transformations, penis shrinkage and 36 Ways of Writing a Vietnamese Poem.
