Time，Flowing into Pacific from the Ammur
2012 Move on Asia, the largest moving image festival in Asia, involves worldwide traveling exhibitions, forum, publication and website based on the media works by 142 artists of Asia Curator Network archive Move on Asia, which has been held five times since 2004, is a huge-scale moving image festival, now for the first time bringing together 48 Asian curators and 142 media artists from around the world.
Encompassing whole festivals, the traveling exhibitions of 2012 Move on Asia would take place in China, Hong Kong, Germany, New Zealand and Korea, which is going to present various Asian video arts to analyze and research along with balanced perspective. In addition, it intends to raise alternative discourses on diverse contemporary video art scenes blurring the boundaries of video with other art genres, as well as suggest new directions for Asian moving images.
Establishing a place to compare art works from each Asian country, the project will provide an opportunity to shed light on 21st century media culture derived from similar but different cultural grounds, discovering Asianness inherent in such bases.
