The National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts (NTMoFA) announced the curatorial team for the 2024 Asian Art Biennial. The event is scheduled to take place in November of this year.
Independent Taiwanese curator and critic Fang Yen-Hsiang was tapped to lead a curatorial team comprising Anne Davidian, of Armenia, who cocurated the Armenian pavilion at the 2022 Venice Biennale; Filipino curator Merv Espina, who lives and works in Manila; Seoul-based curator Haeju Kim, who is organizing the Singapore pavilion at this year’s Venice Biennale; and Asli Seven, who divides her time between Paris and Istanbul.
Though no official theme has yet been announced, according to a press release, the exhibition will “unfold through collective dialogue” to rethink “the territory and definition of Asia,” focusing on the diversity of Asian artistic practices and perspectives. Speaking at a press conference, Fang noted that the curators “hope to develop the Biennial through collective discourse, to reconstruct the understanding of Asian art by breaking through racial, political and geographical boundaries in this international team.” The 2024 Asian Art Biennial is set to open on Nov. 16.
