I am looking forward to being part of the Island Tides Initiative inaugural panel in Vienna, alongside Renan Laru-an, the Artistic Director of Savvy Contemporary in Berlin, and Mai Ling, a Vienna-based artist collective and platform. The panel will discuss artistic and curatorial practices in the context of Asia and the Asian diaspora.
The Island Tides Initiative is an interdisciplinary Philippine Research Program on artistic and curatorial practices in South East Asia and the Pacific.
The inauguration will take place on Thursday, March 14 2024, 6-8pm, at FLUX 2 (1st Floor) on Vordere Zollamstrasse 7, 1030 Vienna (Die Angewandte VZA7).
Welcome remarks will be given by the Rector of the University of Applied Arts Dr. Petra Schaper Rinkel, H.E. Ambassador Evangeline Lourdes A. Bernas of the Embassy of the Philippines in Austria, and Univ-Prof. Bouchra Khalili, Head of the Department of Artistic Strategies.
