Yeondoo Jung

27/9/2013 - 8/11/2013 ,  MAAP SPACE

MAAP SPACE presents two spectacular video works, Documentary Nostalgia (2007) and Twilight Seoul (2012), in what is Yeondoo’s first Australian solo-exhibition.

The 6th Bangkok Experimental Film Festival 2012

12/10/2012-16/11/2012 ,  MAAP SPACE (gallery 2)

In gallery 2, MAAP presents a selection of highlights from the 6th Bangkok Experimental Film Festival (BEFF6). The festival, titled Raiding the Archives, was first screened in Bangkok in January 2012. The program responds to Walter Benjamin’s idea that “articulating the past historically does not mean recognising it ‘the way it really was’. It means appropriating a memory as it flashes up at a moment of danger”. Meditating on memory and nostalgia, the program lines up contemporary cinema against a number of works from the impressive Thai Film Archive, ... Read More

With Chang and Kelley tuned into local routines and rhythms, the sleepy and formerly self-contained mountain villages of Laos appear in s ... Read More

MAAP 2006: out of the internet

30 November 2006 to 25 January 2007 ,  State Library of Queensland

MAAP’s 2006 media art festival, OUT OF THE INTERNET, considered artists working in or connected through internet art practice. OUT OF THE INTERNET realized an interconnected and context-articulate exhibition presence of net-based work across a range of locations from elite museums, galleries, library networks and into a cascade of urban spaces. The internet as a place of operation, exchange and creation for art can be understood as antithetical to established gallery-museum structures. The artists build their own exhibition space. It is a space that opens ... Read More

Yves Klein’s, Le Peintre de l'Espace se Jette Dans le Vide (Leap into the Void) 1960 was created at the time when the first cosmonaut left the gravitational pull of the earth; the photograph’s iconicity then and today results in part from its conceptual representation of a radical shift in how our world was perceived. Exploring conceptual and political notions of gravity – with Klein’s Leap into the Void 1960 as a key anchor to the ways the art works might be read - MAAP in 2004 presented and produced GRAVITY in Singapore across seven major art venues c ...

The third MAAP festival, held in September 2000, extended past festivals’ experimentation with online exchange, content and presentation. The theme of ‘Presence and Place’ rejected the previous festival's ideologies of geographical dissolution. Instead, the festival bolstered the role of site and local context in interpreting new media art. The ‘Presence and Place’ forum was an amalgam of web-linked discussions, facilitated by new media theorist Geert Lovink, and panels scattered throughout the Asia Pacific region with participation from academics, ...

It was this unique climate that gave rise to MAAP, and defined its character as facilitator and catalyst as well as curator and exhibitor. MAAP's ... Read More
