inToAsia: TBA Festival 2015 is organized by inCube Arts, an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in New York City. This is the second edition of inToAsia: Time-based Art Festival 2015 with focus on Asia-based new media artists; organized by CHEN Wei-Ching, Joanne; curated by Loredana Pazzini-Paracciani, WANG Chun-Chi and Carol Yinghua LU.
Architectural Landscapes: SEA in the Forefront group exhibition, curated by Loredana Pazzini-Paracciani, is presented at the Queens Museum as part of inToAsia: TBA Festival 2015.
As urbanization reconfigures parts of Southeast Asia (SEA), natural landscapes have had to adapt to manmade architecture. Architectural Landscapes: SEA in the Forefront not only looks to natural landscapes that are transformed into urban spaces, but also focuses on local architectural landmarks that are slowly disappearing, leaving gaps in the cultural and social legacy of each country.
How do the artists and their communities relate to this transformation? Architectural Landscapes: SEA in the Forefront unravels these negotiations by focusing on four SEA countries – Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Singapore.
