Custodians of art's stories

China Daily  

The Raqs Media Collective-created installation at the "Portals, Stories and Other Journeys" exhibition in Tai Kwun Contemporary. "The lineage between the 1950s generation and the 2000s generation might not be immediate or obvious when we only look at artworks as they explore different subject matter and different formal languages," said co-curator of the show Ozge Ersoy. "But the lineage is evident in their artistic attitude — in other words, in their commitment to constantly search for an individual artistic language and have a sense of responsibility to cultivate the younger generations." The image reaffirms the fact that human beings are predisposed to expressing themselves in art at all times, perhaps especially so in times of crisis — one more reason why such stories of hope and regeneration deserve the love that archivists treat them with.
