BRIEF SOURCES

Time spent on a mobile device is on the rise. In the UK in 2018, it was reported that the average adult spends around two hours and 49 minutes on their smartphone 1, while as of 2019 in the US, people are already spending more time on their phone than watching TV, the average daily time being three hours and 43 minutes 2. That’s more than 10% of a day, and, assuming the eight hours of sleep we are supposed to get, more than 18% of our daily life. The average UK adult checks their phone every 12 minutes 3, so chances are that by the end of this paper, you’d have checked your phone at least once, if you haven’t done so already.

Digital screens do more than steal our time however. Media theorist Charles Soukup argues that “the temporal and spatial dimensions of everyday life are complexly interconnected with digital screens. Time and space are fragmented and displaced as individuals are decreasingly ‘grounded’ or tethered to a kind of physical shared reality.” 4 Our time, our perception of time and the perception of space that comes with it 5, 6, are disrupted by a proliferation of screens; so many invitations to observe the “dizzying movement of meanings, bodies, and texts across screens” 4, leaving our matter behind to conjoin our time with other users online, on platforms with their own version of a moving Now 7.

But it does not feel good to leave your body behind. We are currently witnessing an epidemic in anxiety and dissociative mental health issues among young people, that many relate to the constant immersion in digital and virtual spaces online 8, 9. The link with cultural phenomena such as social media is now well understood - users becoming aware of the negative impact of platforms such as Instagram for instance 10 - but could there be a connection to the more fundamental, phenomenological experience of spending time in a space with no geometric dimension? 11 We are still tethered to the human body - although some technologists would like to sever that link 12. We are beings in space, and as such a distinctive and legible environment offers us security and potentially heightens the potential depth and intensity of human experience; were the mishap of disorientation to happen, we’d feel a sense of anxiety, maybe even terror, that reveals how much our sense of balance and well-being is related to our process of wayfinding. 13

We are now living in an era of unstable reality, where our perception is altered by the fragmentation in time and space, the screen experience existing as a digital patchwork blending in and out of reality. Our link to a shared physical reality is put under constraint; the digital age not going backwards. In this ambient, inescapable immersion in intangible online platforms, is there still space for the human body? Could we imagine a different view of the platforms, one that would allow the interaction with other bodies, mooring ourselves to something more real than feeble one-way “social” links?

When two people get married, they make a promise to share their lives together. But what happens when two artists tie the knot? Will their artistic processes also combine? What kind of works would they make? And what happens if they both have two very different styles?

For artists Kow Leong Kiang and Chong Ai Lei, who got married eight months ago, they prefer their own creative paths. So they have decided to work separately on a unique group exhibition involving artist couples.

They are part of the In Sync: Artist Couples exhibition at the G13 Gallery in Petaling Jaya, featuring six married artist couples. The pairings have chosen to submit individual work except for one couple, which has delivered a joint project.

The result, as you look around the gallery, is a striking exhibition filled with a broad range of techniques and mediums. The quality of works found across In Sync is undeniable. Yet the novelty factor of this exhibit cannot be denied: It does seem like some sort of TV reality show, only without the competitive element.

Kow, 49, is a mid-career artist known for his expressive figurative works and portraits. He first exhibited solo in 2003. Chong, known for her portraits of pensive and mysterious young women, had her first solo show When I See You Again in 2018. Both have come up with eye-catching works for In Sync.

Kow’s contribution is Golden Beach, captures a group of East Coast girls on the beach in Kelantan. Kow, who hails from Petaling Jaya, says the artwork is based on a random photo he took when he was visiting Kelantan a few years ago.

“I thought the photo was interesting. I think, for a lot of us (in the city), the East Coast is considered very far and a bit mysterious. But when I visited that part of the country, I liked it very much. Now I head up there every year to take photos. It’s 20 years since I have been doing that,” says Kow.

This artwork was also a challenge for Kow since he usually paints single subjects. This is the second time in 20 years that he has drawn more than one person at once.

On the other hand, Chong, 34, created a self-portrait called Girl In A Red Blanket, an oil on canvas work. “It’s a blanket from my childhood. My mother gave it to me and it’s a very meaningful present to me. I still have it with me,” says the Segamat, Johor-born artist.

The other artists featured in In Sync include Gan Chin Lee and Liu Hsin-Ying, Amy Nazira and Hidayat Arshad, Anisa Abdullah and Khairul Izham, Najib Ahmad Bamadhaj and Cinta Ayuandrea, and Yuki Tham and Nur Iman.

For Anisa and Khairul, this chance to collaborate came at a good time. “We’ve actually wanted to collaborate for the longest time. So we were very glad to be in this show,” says Anisa with a laugh.

Anisa, who was born in Warsaw, Poland, had her first solo exhibition Cebis-Cebis in 2013. She has since been featured in many local group shows. Khairul, who hails from Maran, Pahang, started out with works inspired by traditional myths and legends. Dark backgrounds are a thing with Khairul.

Anisa and Khairul, both 34, who have been married for six years, have come through with a mash-up of personal styles.

Their mixed media work called Mystery Of Love was realised through a series of arguments and playful exchanges. Both artists have styles that are contrasting. Anisa thrives on works using paper collages, while Khairul holds true to lines and drawings.

“It was a bit hard, because collages are a very solid form of art, not at all like drawing. So it was not easy putting them together, it was a challenge for me,” reveals Khairul with a smile.

“We had disagreements. We argued. I didn’t want this, he didn’t want that, but it all came together. We started with a lot of discussions and sketches. We wanted to make it bright and colourful, but had to make sure we could do to accommodate our individual styles,” says Anisa.

The results are definitely worth the arguments. Works such as Mystery Of Love and The Hummingbird offer a broad canvas filled with distinctive images from each artist. The couple said the works were sort of “family portraits”, with input – ballerinas and unicorns – coming from their toddler daughter.

“Ultimately, this collaboration has been a very special experience for us. It may be the start of something in the future,” says Anisa.

In Sync: Artist Couples is showing at G13 Gallery, Ground Floor, Block B, Kelana Square, Petaling Jaya in Selangor till Sept 7. Call 03-7880 0991 or visit www.g13gallery.com. FB: G13 Gallery.

LA COREA SI RIBELLA: AL FEFF 20 L’ATTESISSIMO 1987: WHEN THE DAY COMES!

UDINE – Lunedì 23 aprile: la quarta giornata del FEFF 20 spazia da Taiwan alla Thailandia, dalla Cina di Transcendent (fantascienza… filosofica) al Giappone di Ryuichi Sakamoto (due docu al Visionario), fermandosi poi in Corea del Sud. La Corea della dissidenza popolare e delle battaglie democratiche, raccontata da Courtesy to the Nation e dall’attesissimo 1987: When the Day Comes di Jang Joonhwan (special guest del FEFF 20 assieme alla moglie, l’attrice Moon So-ri, che martedì 24 aprile presenterà al popolo dei fareastiani The Running Actress, il suo brillante debutto dietro alla macchina da presa).

1987: When the Day Comes tocca un nervo ancora scoperto della sfera pubblica sudcoreana: la straordinaria protesta popolare che, nell’estate di quarant’anni fa, vide milioni di cittadini manifestare contro la dittatura militare di Chun Doo-hwan. Una megaproduzione dove le immagini di fiction s’intrecciano, preziosamente, con immagini riprese dal vivo all’epoca dei fatti. Dopo una protesta durata tre settimane, il popolo si rivelò più forte del governo e gettò le basi per una riforma democratica che è arrivata sino ai nostri giorni. Potrebbe sembrare una vicenda ovvia da “tradurre” cinematograficamente, visto che la storia recente si è rivelata un filone d’oro per lo show-biz coreano, eppure solo ora un regista è riuscito a trasportare l’epica “Lotta di Giugno” in un film.

Alla fine del 2016, un anno prima che 1987: When the Day Comes raggiungesse i cinema, una folla di dimensioni simili a quelle del 1987 ha riempito le strade di Seoul e di altre città coreane chiedendo le dimissioni della presidente Park Geun-hye. Si è trattato di un punto di svolta per la giovane e resiliente democrazia della Corea del Sud, che ha reso quanto mai necessaria (urgente) un’opera come quella di Jang Joon-hwan.

The Shanghai Art Factory That’s Constructing Massive Public Artworks

One of the jewels of Ai Weiwei’s “Good Fences Make Good Neighbors”—the sprawling Public Art Fund project the Chinese artist mounted across New York City last fall—was a gleaming steel cage that sat within the arch at Washington Square Park. The work quickly became a destination for droves of locals and tourists alike, but few likely knew that the work itself was made in a factory on the other side of the globe, in a suburb of Shanghai, China.

Ai’s piece was the first partnership between the New York-based nonprofit and the global design studio, Urban Art Projects (UAP). Specializing in commissioning, building, and installing large-scale public artworks, UAP now operates out of China, New York, and Australia.

The company’s wide swathe of international clients includes prominent artists, art galleries, architects, designers, art fairs, governments, and property developers. Past collaborators include Frank Gehry, Shop Architects, Sean Kelly Gallery, and Sullivan+Strumpf, plus artists like Leo Villareal, Sopheap Pich, and Richard Sweeney. To date, UAP’s 200-person-strong team has worked on projects in over 50 cities, with more than 2,600 collaborators.

UAP’s beginnings trace back to Australia in 1993, when brothers Daniel and Matthew Tobin were recent art school graduates living in Brisbane. They opened a 400-square-meter metal foundry in an outer suburb of the city, where they and fellow creatives could produce large works.

“I’d always been interested in public art,” Daniel told me with a laugh, recalling his undergraduate thesis show at the Queensland University of Technology. He had installed a figurative, fiberglass sculpture in a bathtub at a local mall. “It wasn’t amazing,” he admitted, but the project fulfilled his desire to bring art outside of white-cube galleries—an ambition that has become essential to all of the projects that UAP puts its name on.

Slowly, the Tobins built up a network of artists, curators, and architects, with whom they produced projects in the foundry, and helped foster a dialogue among these collaborators. In the original foundry, they cast their first public work, a piece by the Aboriginal artist Judy Watson. And while early site-specific installations like this one were heavily rooted in celebrating and visualizing Australian identity, UAP soon expanded its reach and repertoire. The Tobins moved their Brisbane operations to a 5,000-square-meter space, formerly used for train fabrication, where they continue to operate and have a foundry, paint shop, pattern shop, and metal shop.

It wasn’t until 15 years into their practice, in 2009, that they opened a new factory in Asia. They chose to set up shop in China in hopes of breaking into what was then an untapped market—a growing upper class, expanding cities, and a rapidly developing property industry.

At the time, UAP had already established a global presence through works commissioned from the United States and the Middle East. For example, they worked with HOK Architects at King Abdullah University of Technology in Thuwal, Saudi Arabia, to install public works by Carsten Höller and Richard Deacon, among others; and they collaborated with artists Jeff Kopp, Chris Doyle, and David Trubridge on works for the Los Angeles mall Westfield Culver City. But working with Chinese clients had proved challenging.

UAP had run into logistical nightmares when it came to shipping works into China. Import taxes in the People’s Republic of China are known for being high (though this has fluctuated over the years), but other factors, too, made the endeavors extremely costly. The necessary paperwork must be reviewed meticulously in multiple languages, ensuring that all questions are answered correctly and meet bureaucratic standards. If any errors do occur, large works could easily get stuck in customs.

When working under deadlines, the Tobins explained, if a piece did get stuck, it would cost less to simply remake the work, and “file again under due process,” as it could take months to refile. In order to effectively work within the country’s borders, it became clear that artwork needed to be produced locally.

Since opening a workshop in China, UAP solidified design and construction contracts, established partnerships with artists, and has been able to ensure high-quality production that meets international standards. The Chinese workshop is of a similar scale to the Brisbane headquarters, and has facilities for pattern-making and metal fabrication. (UAP also has a mill-workshop in Long Island City, New York.)

Over the years, UAP has built up a global supply chain of fabricators who specialize in materials like hand-blown glass, ceramics, and stone. Additionally, the crew has been working with the Australian universities Queensland University of Technology and RMIT to incorporate innovative technologies into manufacturing, including robots that can build massive artworks.

Projects executed through the Shanghai factory evidence UAP’s versatility and deft ability to actualize a wide range of artworks.

In 2015, for example, Chinese-Australian artist Lindy Lee worked with UAP’s curatorial team to complete a six-meter-tall piece made from hand-beaten panel and mirror-polished stainless steel for Taiwanese property developer Ting Hsin. The resulting piece is a gleaming silver oval, titled The Life of Stars, which glows, thanks to an internal lighting system that sends luminous beams through perforations on the sculpture’s surface.

Another notable project, from 2016, was a collaboration with New York’s Sean Kelly Gallery to realize British artist Idris Khan’s 90-meter-long monument for Abu Dhabi’s Memorial Park, Wahat Al Karama. Comprised of 31 leaning panels, made from recycled aluminum sourced from decommissioned armored vehicles, the fabrication of the structure was split between the Australian and Chinese factories.

Recently, in 2017, UAP worked with Chinese master Song Dong to install neon, LED strip lights onto the heritage facade of Shanghai’s Rockbund Art Museum for his most recent retrospective, and later in the year, UAP’s design team helped Lawrence Argent create a 16-meter-tall, faceted dragon sculpture that sprawls over two levels of a sunken mall plaza in the southern city of Shenzhen, one of the fastest growing economic zones in the country. “Some of our most adventurous commissions are in China, in malls and the like,” Tobin explained.

Another example of this is a massive interactive playscape by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman (best known for his massive, floating rubber duck sculpture), which was commissioned for a waterfront park and mixed-use development also in Shenzhen. This site-specific piece, titled Kraken (2017), is inspired by its namesake, a mythological sea monster, but is decidedly less threatening, taking shape as a friendly, giant red octopus with a hat. A massive jungle gym made from colorful woven rope and metal armatures, it’s become a local landmark and photo-friendly destination, frequented by families with small children and school groups.

With a growing capacity and a respected practice, the Shanghai UAP studio has become ideal not just for local distribution, but for exports as well. Within the past few years, UAP has even been approached by major international art galleries seeking out potential manufacturing partnerships, hoping to create opportunities for their artists while minimizing unnecessary expenses.

China’s rapid urban development and a maturing cultural interest in the arts paved the way for UAP to make its mark on the industry and the country, through what managing director Steven Shen refers to as catching the right wave.

Back in 2008, “the business was so unique compared to the majority of what we were seeing,” Shen said of his first encounter with the Tobins, back when he was working at the Queensland Government China Trade Office. “When Matt Tobin came to my office to discuss how they could expand into China, after half an hour I still couldn’t figure out how we could help him. He talked a lot about art, artists, and urban development…it was so rare, 10 years ago.”

Since then, it’s become essential to the development of the market. “The integration of art into a broader business strategy is going to be really important going forward,” Shen elaborated, reflecting on the growth UAP has seen in its business, and in its clients’ approaches to a wide range of projects. With the availability of selfie-consultants these days, and a growing interest in technology like augmented reality, it’s clear to Shen and his team that the future of urban development, especially in China, lies in the arts. And UAP might be in just the right place to drive that conversation.

The way the company has developed within the PRC speaks not only to its business acumen, but to the notion that “Made in China” can be a testament to quality, and not simply affordable manufacturing.

New York’s Public Art Fund chose to develop a continuing partnership with UAP after it offered to cover the initial cost of Ai Weiwei’s work, and due to its proven commitment to high-quality production.

It’s become clear that UAP is investing not only in its collaborators, but in the future of public art.
