In recent years, art practices of woodcut printmaking have emerged in various parts of Asia. Artists and activists intervene in society through their works, create together with the public, and inspire each across the limitation of borders. The exhibition is titled “Debordering: Woodcut Printmaking Practice in Inter-Asian Context”, presenting 12 artists/art collectives from Asia, showcasing various practices in the context of “bordering” and its corresponding practices in deconstructing/dismantling it.
In the past three years, the global pandemic has caused certain barriers to cultural exchanges. This exhibition raises awareness of the issue of “bordering”, aiming to explore how it affects communication between people at different levels; besides, this exhibition hopes to outline the critical awareness of “Asia”, by presenting art practices from different regions and open up the possibility for further understanding and discussion.
In addition, seminars, guided tours and woodcut workshops will also be held during the exhibition period, to communicate with the audience through different activities. All are welcome to participate.
