AAP Issue 133

Whether it is resisting the currents of history or finding ways to shape the present, artists are continually engaged in a struggle against the times, and even time itself. In our cover Feature, we look at Imelda Capije Endaya, an artist whose practice re-centers the historical narrative of the Philippines around women, portraying them as leaders of social campaigns, instrumental to the economy, and as key forgotten figures in the national mythology. The second Feature in this issue is an interview with the Korean artist Shim Moon-Seup, for whom the rhythms of nature and the embodied energy found in raw materials are the core of his practice. For Inside Burger Collection, curator Tobias Ostrander interviews Paris-based Colombian artist Ivan Argote about 
his research and performances around public monuments. In Up Close, we spotlight Hajra Waheed, Brook 
Hsu, and Vaevae Chan. In Profiles we dive deep into the practices Citra Sasmita in Bali and Berlin-based artist Sung Tieu. In Essays, we revisit the years Korean abstract painter Yun Hyong-Keun spent in Paris after the 1980 massacre in Gwangju. For our One on One column, performance artist Kawita Vatanajyankur explains the formative lessons she took from the practice of Marina Abramovic. Artist-activist Johanna Palmeyro describes her initiatives to re-make the museum during her residency at the Singapore Art Museum in the Point. For the Dispatch column, Danielle Shang brings us up-to-date on the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) initiatives in Los Angeles. For Reviews, we examine the 30th anniversary edition of the Sharjah Biennial, plus exhibitions of artists revered and upcoming from Tokyo to Singapore, Manila to New York. Finally, in Where I Work, writing from Auckland, Hutch Wilco visits the young family of Seung Yul Oh and Jungeun Lee to see how they make their creative enterprises a central part of their household.
