» Nguyen Art Foundation presents two artworks from our collection at PERSEVERANCE: Art Crossing Borders by artists Rirkrit Tiravanija and Tada Hengsapkul

Nguyen Art Foundation is pleased to present two artworks from our collection currently exhibited at PERSEVERANCE: Art Crossing Borders. The works are respectively created by artists Rirkrit Tiravanija and Tada Hengsapkul. The exhibition is on view from 14-25 November 2023 at ART:1 New Museum, Jakarta, Indonesia.

Presented by the ASEAN-KOREA Partnership Project for Innovative Culture (PIC), the exhibition offers a transnational perspective on contemporary art practices – not only of the making and viewership of art but also its cultures of collecting – from the 10 member countries of ASEAN as well as Korea. Through the generous loan of artworks from private collections and institutions from outside of the collector’s and institution’s “home country”, the exhibition questions this very term: what is a “home country”, when so much commonality is shared with what exists outside its very borders, and likewise, when so much alienation and polarity exist within them.
