Join us under the theme Nurture Gaia, running from 24 October 2024 to 25 February 2025, as we showcase 76 leading artists from 39 countries across 11 vibrant venues! 🌍✨ While most venues are now open, a couple will launch later, with One Bangkok welcoming visitors from 25 October onwards and Wat Arun opening from 10 November.
The build-up to this moment has been exciting, featuring numerous local and international press tours, artist talks, and events. Over the next few days, we have an exciting lineup planned, including the BAB2024 Symposium and live performances from our featured artists. Stay tuned!
Nurture Gaia draws inspiration from the maternal figure of Mother Earth, embodying her historical role as a nurturer and giver of life across cultures. This year, the Bangkok Art Biennale will explore essential contemporary themes, including anthropology, collectivism, ecology, feminism, and the politics of time and place.
Prepare to be captivated by a constellation of artworks—many on display for the very first time! From drawings and paintings to sculptures, videos, and installations, our collection features both established and emerging artists and collectives.
Stay connected for continuous updates! We can’t wait to welcome you to our exciting venues. When you share your experience on social media, don’t forget to tag us! 📸✨

Performance by Elen Braga at De Single art center in Antwerp.
Friday June 7 and 8, at 7pm (1h)
« Three dancers struggle at the hands of this enormous figure named Bababuá. »
‘Brazilian artist Elen Braga develops performances, videos, installations and textile works. In her practice she unravels myths and how they survive in contemporary beliefs and behavior.
She creates a unique performance in front of the enormous wall of DE SINGEL. She immersed herself in local stories about giants, from which she developed her own giant. Three dancers struggle at the hands of this enormous figure named « Bababuá ». Against the backdrop of a burning building we see the eternal cycle of power building and power decline.’

“On the occasion of our film series #LynnHershmanLeeson: Moving-Image Innovator, frequent Hershman Leeson collaborator #TildaSwinton sat down in one of MoMA’s theaters to revisit their 2002 project #Teknolust. Swinton, who plays four different roles in this “sexual biogenetic comedy,” notes just how prescient the film is about now-commonplace topics like online dating, cloning, and AI—and how rare it is to encounter these themes without a dystopian edge. “It’s very, very unusual for anybody to talk with such a sense of optimism about the relationship between AI and human energies.”
🔊🔺The film series Lynn Hershman Leeson: Moving-Image Innovator is on view in MoMA’s theaters June 7–20, 2024. 🔻📣

Wouters Gallery, in collaboration with Rectangle, is pleased to present “Guardians,” a group exhibition by net.art pioneers Auriea Harvey, Joan Heemskerk, JODI, Lynn Hershman Leeson and Julia Scher. This exhibition explores the multiple dualities and interpretations of guardianship, from historical mythological figures to contemporary societal and corporate control. It highlights how this concept transcends physical boundaries to become a pervasive force in our digital lives, shaping our identities in a world increasingly determined by algorithms.
April 24 – June 1, 2024

RP @juliastoschekfoundation • LYNN HERSHMAN LEESON: ARE OUR EYES TARGETS?
11 April 2024 – 2 February 2025
OPENING
9 April 2024, 6–10 p.m. (Artist talk: 6:30 p.m.)
The Julia Stoschek Foundation is excited to present “Lynn Hershman Leeson: Are Our Eyes Targets?”, the first solo exhibition by the renowned artist and media pioneer in Düsseldorf. Spanning the entire second floor of the foundation, the exhibition features videos, photo-collages, and interactive and mixed-media installations that delve into the artist’s groundbreaking practice.
2024 marks the fortieth anniversary of the epic video installation, “The Electronic Diaries of Lynn Hershman Leeson 1984–2019” (1984–2019), which forms the centerpiece of the exhibition. Hershman Leeson examines her personal experiences of abuse and illness and the relationship between technology and self, amid the global political context. As the work shifts between time frames and perspectives, viewers encounter the evolution of multiple, sometimes contradictory personas that represent the artist. These slipping identities lead us to question how much of what we see on our screens is true, revealing a gap between reality and our mediated images of it. Set against the contemporary media landscape, Hershman Leeson’s work rings truer than ever.
Curator: Lisa Long
Assistant Curator: @lineajan
Inspired by the iconic work “The Electronic Diaries of Lynn Hershman Leeson 1984–2019” (1984–2019), the group exhibition “Digital Diaries“ (opening the same day) will look at how artists have experimented with diaristic forms in video and digital art from the 1970s to today.

‘The motif of death equally thrives in the universe of Angélique Aubrit and Ludovic Beillard. During the performance inaugurating the exhibition, they maneuver three characters in altered states of consciousness. While Ed enjoys his cosmic journey, Al resists his bad trip, and, as he dozes off, they try to revive Bob’s corpse. This theater of living effigies derives its macabre aesthetic from death masks that were customarily made to immortalize the deceased. Performed or not, their characters remain without expression nor presence. Rather like in the bloody orgies in Dennis Cooper’s 1993 short story “Jerk”, featuring a puppet theater full of teenagers thirsting for sex and blood, no one ever truly dies.’ (…)

RP @shanghartgallery • “The forebears are born by being trained. Training them is training a part of ourselves, the part that has been termed destiny.”—XU ZHEN®
On view until 25 February 2024, XU ZHEN®’s solo exhibition at Hong Museum in Wenzhou continues the artist’s interest in the transformation, iteration, and re-evaluation of cultural symbols in a post-globalization ecology. Through art, the exhibition seeks to galvanize people into reimagining the future and primitivity. “Today, our knowledge, civilization, and truth (i.e. the forebears) must feel fresh. Only knowledge that can be applied afresh to the new era can have meaning.”
