60-Minute Cinema: Taiwan programme

About

60-minute Cinema is a six week changing video programme at Chinese Arts Centre. During this time, our main gallery space will be transformed into a comfortable seating environment specially designed for video viewing. Three curators Dong Bingfeng, Teresa Kwong and Amy Cheng have been invited to curate a 60-minute programme of moving images. Each of the curated programmes will be presented for two weeks. The curators are invited to draw on their specific areas of interest and expertise to encompass artists' film, video and animation, from of their home cities. Their selection reflects their personal interests as well as the differing socio-political and cultural contexts of their locations — mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.
