ArtReview Asia Magazine Spring 2019 Vorige editie

Inside the Spring 2019 issue of ArtReview Asia, the focus is on the complexities of identity in the face of a globalised art market. The cover story explores the distant yet resonant relationship between the work of Taiwanese artists Richard Lin and Michael Lin, whose practices are presented side-by-side at Art Basel Hong Kong. The magazine also features an in-depth profile on the career of Chinese-American artist Tishan Hsu, whose pioneering work explores the interface between the body and technology. To mark ArtReview's 70th anniversary, this edition looks back to its archives with a 1966 interview with Indian painter F.N. Souza, in which he discusses his struggle for acceptance in the London artworld. Plus, a report on Thailand's recent boom in biennials and festivals examines the function of art in Thai society, while columns explore the politics of language and justice in India. And of course, extensive previews of the season's major events, from the Sharjah Biennial to the national pavilions at the Venice Biennale, alongside reviews of the 9th Asia Pacific Triennial, the Kochi-Muziris Biennale and Cao Fei's first major solo exhibition in Asia
