ArtReview Asia Magazine

In the Autumn issue of ArtReview Asia, Max Crosbie-Jones explores how the artist Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook keeps trying to leave the artworld, and her work on mortality, feminism and dogs; Mark Rappolt interviews Sri Lankan artist and activist Pushpakanthan Pakkiyarajah, about war, landscape and how ‘everything is connected’; Adeline Chia examines how a rehang of the National Gallery Singapore reflects on the country’s 60th anniversary of independence; Oliver Basciano writes about how Naeem Mohaiemen’s new film deconstructs media narratives from the past, and what it offers us for the present; and Mikala Tai maps the aspects of horror film that shape the First Nations women that haunt Hayley Millar Baker’s new work. Also in the Autumn issue: a new artist project by Lakshmi Nivas Collective, Landscape Lexicon, the rise of female wuxia writers, Mark Rappolt annotates Victorian naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace’s 1860s writings from the Malay Archipelago, plus exhibition and book reviews.
