MO〔VE〕MENT- MEDIATING A MOMENT
IN TIME AND A MOVEMENT IN HISTORY The FESTIVAL 2017 questions, twists and
manipulates the meanings of MOMENT and MOVEMENT. While the FESTIVAL may create
seminal/ visual objects of curiosity, complexity and ideas for speculation, it
is not simply a moment of ‘art attack’. The second praxis of the FESTIVAL 2017 embraces
platforms/ methodologies of pedagogy for public mediation and it forges
co-extensive spaces and initiatives for such co-participants as artists,
educators, school-cum-public learners to develop self, interactive or
constructive learning. The FESTIVAL 2017 focuses on “MO(VE)MENT” and it
accredits our daily gesture, attitude, act of identity, self/ co-existence,
difference, intervention, detachment, escapism, nomadism. Every moment or
movement in our daily life, or resistance to localization, globalization, or
its hybrid mix (glocalism) is celebrated. The FESTIVAL makes every
participatory moment count and makes every momentary memory further-lingering.
Together the artists explore the extension of art form and kinaesthetic
awareness, investigating the intelligence of visual and body form, and their
intervention in space. The image/ imagined/ imaginary of each project
restructures the relationship between the MOMENT of intervention and MOVEMENT
bearing enduring thought-practice. Every frozen, visualized or performative
moment embraces its intrinsic and intuitive value and the FESTIVAL brings this
value further to public understanding or historical impact. “MO〔VE〕MENT” not only presents
images or attitudes existing in “the current moment of space-time”, it supports
projects with thought-discussion in “the (art, culture, urban, …) movement of
the past or future” as well. The dialogical platform is not simply intending to
renew a page in the ontology of history or globalism, nor spearheading
geo-political culture towards a movement encompassing collateral event at the
expense of discourse; rather, it emerges from a speculation with OUR TIME and a
dialogue with history IN THE EVERYDAY.
INTERNATIONAL
FORUM ON CROSSING-BORDER BORDER-CROSSING | International Festival of Intermedia
2017
L1
CENTRAL COURTYARD- JCCAC Art Village
OCT 9 (MON) 5:00 - 6:30PM
EXHIBITION & POST-PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
The
forum brings the discourse of the crossing-border phenomenon to the centre of
discussion, focusing on artworks or their branching-out ideas which narrate
their connection and possibilities with other artworks in enacting or
refreshing heritage and urban spaces, be they banal, unused, pop-up, or
alternative. The forum is a new glocal mediated and/ or body-derived platform
where the rich heterogeneity of cultural production is experienced as
imaginative metaphor non-definitive.
The
festival forum aims at assisting the co-participants to explore ways on how the
conventional demarcation of space-time, global-local strategy can be
transgressed, and how the local praxes can be positively assimilated to
world-view experiments to create new, shared experience.
