  • Tiffany Chung: Scratching the Walls of Memory
    TIFFANY CHUNG scratching the walls of memory scratching the walls of memory TIFFANY CHUNG FOReWORD TYLeR ROLLINS It is with great pleasure that we welcome back Tiffany Chung for her second solo exhibition at Tyler Rollins Fine Art. In the two years since her last show with us, Play (2008), she has been very active on the international scene, participating in exhibitions on four continents. In 2009, she was featured in So Close Yet So Far Away: Incheon International Women Artists’ Biennale in Incheon, South Korea; A Starting Point: Intrude 36 – Dynamics of Change and Growth at Zendai MoMA, Shanghai; and in group shows in Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, and Milan. So far in 2010, her work has been shown in Ascending Dragon: Contemporary Vietnamese Arts at the Armory Center for the Arts in Pasadena, California; The River Project at the Campbelltown Arts Centre in Sydney, Australia; and in a solo exhibition in Berlin. She has been selected to participate in the Singapore Biennale in 2011. For her current exhibition, scratching the walls of memory, Chung presents a new body of work inspired by maps of urban regions, featuring embroidery and appliqué works on canvas. Chung has long been fascinated with maps, not only for their graphic possibilities but also for what they say about our relation to the past and our visions of the future. Over the past few years, she has produced an ongoing series of works on paper based on urban planning maps that evoke the utopian visions and often harsh dislocations of our rapidly developing world.

Tiffany Chung’s productions lead to utopia/dystopia by Ulrike Münter Where everything is planned, there is no room for life. Tiffany Chung’s multimedia works — ranging from drawings and staged pho- tographs to installations, and performances — send the observer on an emotional rollercoaster ride. The pastels that dominate her palette, the floral patterns, cloud-like shapes and soft materials seem invitingly cosy at first glance, but a closer look often reveals that Chung’s artificial paradises are sterile and deceptive. In Chung’s most recent films, this critical basic tenor has been replaced by melan- choly introspection. The exhibition Finding Galápagos: fish, pigs, youngsters, old folks, men, women and the Black Canals (not in any particular order) (2009) traces the artist’s journey along this route. Born in Vietnam, Tiffany Chung immigrated to California with her family 30 years ago. She returned to Vietnam in 2000, and has since visited Japan, Thailand, Korea and China for numerous Künstliche Paradiese oder Heimat – Wo? Tiffany Chungs Inszenierungen führen nach Utopia/Dystopia von Ulrike Münter Wo es keinen Zufall mehr gibt, ist das Leben ausgehaucht.

The lifeless body of drowned toddler Alan Kurdi, lying facedown on a Turkish beach in 2015. These powerful iconic images, focusing relentlessly on the trauma and spectacle of war atrocities, freeze-frame the “victims” in time and space, prolonging their pain and agony in perpetuity. Intended to shock, visual images of “third-world” suffering in Western media—of the dead, wounded, starving—constitute generic decontextualized horrors that elicit pity and sympathy, not discernment and assessment. As Rey Chow (2006) has argued, Americans have increasingly come to know the world as a target: when wars break out, foreign areas and peoples briefly enter American mainstream public discourses, often via deeply disturbing images of suffering, as embodiments of (naturalized) violence, crisis, and disasters (Fernandes 2013, 193). The hyperfocus on suffering, and the outpouring of outrage and concern over dead and injured refugees, has become a sub- stitute for serious analysis of the geopolitical conditions that produced their displacement in the first instance. Constructed for Western consumption, these spectacular(ized) images render invisible and inaudible displaced peo- ple’s everyday and out-of-sight struggles as well as their triumphs as they manage war’s impact on their lives (Lubkemann 2008, 36; Hyndman 2010). In public representations, the contemporary figure of the displaced war victim is highly gendered: “the image is of helpless and superfluous women and children, dislocated and destitute; uprooted and unwanted” (Manchanda 2004, 4179).

  • Đổi Mới and the Globalization of Vietnamese
    RESEARCH ESSAY NORA A. TAYLOR AND PAMELA N. COREY ĐổiMới and the Globalization of Vietnamese Art hen scholars first came to Vietnam to study contemporary Viet- Wnamese society in the early s, they were interested in the “new” globalizing Vietnam, the Vietnam that was opening its doors to the West. This was certainly the case in the visual arts with the earliest international writing on contemporary Vietnamese painting, an essay by Jeffrey Hant- over published in the catalogue that accompanies Uncorked Soul (), one of the first post-ĐổiMới exhibitions of Vietnamese art outside of Vietnam. In his essay, Hantover quotes a Vietnamese author who says that “originality and diversity had begun to replace the monotony of col- lective, and more or less academic presentations.” Hantover writes that “ĐổiMới has promoted creativity in the plastic arts…Painters can (now) paint what they choose.” For social scientists too, ĐổiMới signaled the end of socialism and the beginning of globalism. As Jayne Werner writes, “globally, ĐổiMới links and integrates Vietnam into the capitalist world order, a process which has been called ‘globalization.’” In the early s, it was as if all writing on art centered on this image, the allegory of the once repressed and now suddenly free, liberated, and liberal Vietnam. Most critics and observers of Vietnamese art discussed Vietnamese paintings in these terms;itwasasifallartreflectedthis Journal of Vietnamese Studies, Vol. , Issue , pps. –.

    Tiffany Chung (b. 1969, Đà Nẵng, Viet Nam) excavates a history hidden in plain sight for the past forty-five years. Her subject, the War in Vietnam (1955–75), has achieved a nearly mythic significance in the United States. In Vietnam, “the War” devastated life as it had been known, dividing time into a “before” and “after.” Yet missing from the narratives told by these two sides is the perspective of the South Vietnamese, on whose behalf the Americans entered the War, and for whom Tiffany Chung aims to give voice in Vietnam, Past Is Prologue. Through her meticulously drawn and stitched maps, emotional interviews, and intensive archival research, Chung explores their experience, from the intimate to the global. She begins with a fine-grained look into one person’s story—that of her father, who fought for the South Vietnamese military during the War; widens out to encompass the stories of former refugees from Vietnam; and pulls out further still to show the global effects of their collective migration in the War’s wake. The project is personal, stemming from Chung’s own life. After her father spent fourteen years in a North Vietnamese prison camp, Chung’s family immigrated to the United States. She witnessed war, fled her country, and reconstituted her life as an American, first in Los Angeles, and then in Houston where she lives today. The exhibition features Vietnamese voices from American cities—including those from nearby Falls Church, Virginia—who were part of the large-scale immigration that reshaped this country’s culture. Foregrounding stories left out of official histories, Chung reframes the legacies of war.

  • 21St Biennale of Sydney Unveils Artistic Program
    21st Biennale of Sydney unveils artistic program - 80 artists to present work at seven venues across Sydney over three months for the Biennale of Sydney’s 45th anniversary - Sydney, Australia: the Biennale of Sydney today announced the 80 artists who will present work at seven venues across Sydney for the 45th anniversary of Australia’s most well-known contemporary art event, recognised for commissioning and showcasing innovative and thought-provoking Australian and international art. Participating artists in the 21st Biennale of Sydney hail from six continents including Africa, Asia, Australia, North and South America and Europe with a quarter of the exhibiting artists from Australia. The 21st Biennale of Sydney is a free exhibition spanning three months from 16 March until 11 June 2018. Exploring the curatorial theme of SUPERPOSITION: Equilibrium & Engagement, the 21st Biennale of Sydney will be presented at seven of the city’s most respected museums, galleries and non-traditional exhibition spaces: Art Gallery of NSW (AGNSW), Artspace, Carriageworks, Cockatoo Island, Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA), Sydney Opera House and 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art. Many of the artworks presented in the 21st Biennale are the result of direct engagement with communities around the globe and reflect the artists’ own migrations or personal histories. Artistic Director, Mami Kataoka commented: “The artists in the 21st Biennale of Sydney have been chosen to offer a panoramic view of how opposing interpretations can come together in a state of equilibrium. The history of the people of Sydney collectively reflects the history of the world in the 20th century, in particular the movements and migration of people and cultures away from conflict.

  • Artist Tiffany Chung's Maps Trace Tragic Routes
    ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT // ARTS & THEATER Artist Tiffany Chung’s maps trace tragic routes Molly Glentzer Jan. 4, 2019 Updated: Jan. 4, 2019 5:08 p.m. 11 Artist Tiffany Chung stands near her embroidered work “IDMC: numbers of worldwide conflict and disaster IDPs by end of 2016,” which is on view in the exhibition “New Cartographies” at Asia Society Texas Center. Photo: Melissa Phillip, Houston Chronicle / Staff photographer Maps can reveal many kinds of truths, depending on the maker’s agenda. Asia Society Texas Center’s engagingly provocative show “New Cartographies” illustrates this through the diverse work of four internationally prominent artists. Sohei Nishino’s terrific “Diorama Maps” contains thousands of collaged photographs from his travels through the streets of some of the world’s densest cities. The carefully angled brushstrokes of Li Singsong’s monumental 2D topographic painting “Beihei” evoke a zen landscape of peaks and valleys that look untouched by humans. Allan deSouza’s sly, fictional maps rethink 19th-century colonial histories. And then there are the two rooms of works by Tiffany Chung, who recently moved to Houston. Her signature cartographic paintings and embroidered canvases — based on reams of data analysis, historical study and field interviews — are as hard-hitting as they are aesthetically pleasing. Examining how human conflicts, urban growth and environmental disasters have impacted people and cultural memory, they trace the routes of refugees and count casualties, among other things, often as a corrective to official accounts. Chung also creates nuanced and topical sculpture, film and performance. She has participated in most of the major biennials or art fairs in Europe, Asia and the U.S.; and it’s a rare year when she isn’t juggling shows at major museums.
