ArtReview Asia Magazine Winter 2018 Edizione posteriore

Inside the Winter 2018 issue of ArtReview Asia, an in-depth interview with cover artists Raqs Media Collective explores their quarter-century of ‘kinetic contemplation’ and their restless artistic and curatorial practice. Also featured is a conversation with Cuauhtémoc Medina, chief curator of the 12th Shanghai Biennale, on the eve of its opening, and features on the iconoclastic painting of Katharina Grosse and the complex economic and geological narratives of Nicholas Mangan. This edition dives into the region's art scenes, with reports on the artist-led Bangkok Biennial and the "unofficial" contemporary art of Laos. Plus, Points of View columns tackle the politics of language and rising nationalism in India, and the role of folk rituals in addressing gender and social marginalisation in Tamil Nadu. And of course, a full reviews section covering major exhibitions including the Gwangju Biennale, and solo shows for FX Harsono, Akram Zaatari and Aditya Novali.
