Asia Art Archive | call for presentations | Hong Kong International Art Fair

To give voice to ideas that demand to be heard, here and now, Asia Art Archive (AAA) initiates 'Open Platform' with a call to cultural producers and organisers to submit proposals for 28-minute presentations to be held during ART HK 11, the Hong Kong International Art Fair (26-29 May).

The parameters for presentation content are wide-reaching and can include anything from lectures and performances, to the introduction of art projects, books, workshops, and beyond.

AAA has been the official educational partner of ART HK since its inception in 2008, presenting 'Backroom Conversations' to address global issues in the field with a regional focus through a series of well-received talks, panel discussions, screenings, and a conference.

A panel of judges consisting of editors from international art magazines will select four presentations for 'Open Platform', based on diversity of content, originality, format, and relevance to today’s world. AAA will provide a publicly-accessible platform for these presentations during the fair and support necessary costs such as projectors, a basic stereo system, and publicity along with the ‘Backroom Conversations’. Chosen projects will be awarded up to US$1,500 to support other related costs. Panel judges include Negar Azimi (Bidoun), Michelle Kuo (ArtForum), Andrew Maerkle (ARTit), Elaine Ng (ArtAsiaPacific), and Mark Rappolt (Art Review).

Deadline for proposals: 11 April
