TAEYOON KIM

26 May 2016 to 08 July 2016 ,  MAAP SPACE


In this solo exhibition Taeyoon Kim takes the material of digital media from our
everyday lives and transforms this data into hypnotic video loops. Taeyoon uses
both complicated algorithms and captured footage to create playful yet
meditative works that contemplate how we adapt to virtual spaces that are ever
growing within physical space that can become narrowed. Taeyoon’s recent work
explores post-Internet theory and his work is a unique materialized form of the
data that drives society. The vitalization of the network interface, via
websites such as Tu ... Read More

YEONDOO JUNG

27/9/2013 - 8/11/2013 ,  MAAP SPACE


Yeondoo Jung makes elaborate artificial environments for video and photographs.
Combining handmade theatrical sets with analogue special effects, the South
Korean artist creates worlds that are richly detailed and slick but always a
little imperfect. MAAP SPACE presents two spectacular video works, Documentary
Nostalgia (2007) and Twilight Seoul (2012), in what is Yeondoo’s first
Australian solo-exhibition. In these works, as with many of his projects, the
artist plays with the shakiness of truth in both representation and
recollection. Filmed in a single une ... Read More


SHILPA GUPTA

26/7/2013 - 30/8/2013 ,  MAAP SPACE


Indian conceptual artist Shilpa Gupta presents four major works at MAAP Space in
a solo presentation of video, sculpture and installation work. Launching her
career in 1997, with a strong focus on media and interactive art[1], Gupta’s
work has come to be internationally regarded for its commentary on the
intertwining of the political and the personal across a vast range of
contemporary issues. Gupta is interested in human perception and how
information, visible or invisible, is transmitted and internalized in everyday
life. Constantly drawn to how objects are ... Read More


WANG GONGXIN

22/3/2013 - 26/4/2013 ,  MAAP SPACE


MAAP's current exhibition in Brisbane continues a focused series of leading
media artists. Wang Gongxin has a significant place in contemporary Chinese art
history. As a senior first generation video artist in China, Wang has produced
an accomplished body of work over the past twenty years and has had great
influence on a younger generation of artists within China. Trained as a painter,
Wang Gongxin moved into video and photography after an extended time living in
New York during the late 80’s and returning to live in Beijing in 1994. Working
across med ... Read More


PATTY CHANG & DAVID KELLEY: ROUTE 3

12/10/2012 - 16/11/2012 ,  MAAP SPACE (gallery 1)


Set in Northwest Laos, the meeting point of the Mekong river, China and Burma,
Route 3 (2011) sees celebrated U.S. artists Patty Chang & David Kelley sharpen
their idiosyncratic collaborative project: the geo-political Asian road film.
Neat in focus and beautifully composed, the work studies the spatial,
environmental, economic and social impact of Route 3, a recently constructed
trade route between China, Laos and Thailand. 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


ZHANG PEILI AT MAAP SPACE

4/8/2012 - 15/9/2012 ,  MAAP SPACE


Zhang Peili is a senior artist who emerged in the first wave of Chinese
contemporary art in the 1980s. His seminal video work 30 X 30 (1988) anchors his
reputation as one of the most significant figures in Chinese contemporary art
and is broadly accepted as being the first video art work produced in China.
After studying painting at Zhejiang Art Academy (now the China Academy of Art),
Zhang’s experimental practice quickly transgressed painting. His conceptual
approach to art making led him to a variety of media and techniques including
instruct ... Read More

Webster and Lisa O'Neill. The work allows two people in separate spaces to

furniture'. Participants engage in a shared sensory intimacy, as they navigate
their way through a physical interface of digital imagery, multichannel sound
and tactile feedback. The presentation of Intimate Transactions at Synthetic
Times, National Art Mu ... 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


MAAP IN SINGAPORE 2004: GRAVITY




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 ... Read More

Museum with the support of The China International Exhibitions Agency, The Gohua
Group, The Central Academy of Fine Arts and the Australian Embassy in Beijing.
The festival theme of ‘moist’ suggested a conductive environment of cultural
ideas recognising the non-linear and pluralist characteristics of contemporary
art, culture and s ... Read More
