Exhibition Overview

Asian Film and Video Art Forum 2024

Since 2015, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art has been introducing the works of major video artists in Asia through the Asian Film and Video Art Forum and hosting artist talks and discussions related to the event. From September 4 (Wed) to September 6 (Fri), 2024, the 4th edition of Asian Film and Video Art Forum will be held at the MMCA Film and Video in Seoul—5 artist talks and a discussion with 5 curators in the same region.

Following the forum, the films by Asian film and video artists are presented to the audience from October 11 to November 27. The 5 films of the 10 years project are shown as well. Initiated in 2015 with 10 Years: Hongkong, 10 Years: Thailand, 10 Years:Taiwan, and 10 Years :Myanmar will be screened.

For the last few years under the pandemic, we couldn't be away from home. Our daily lives were strongly influenced by the "border," "nationality," and "the nation." It was an opportunity to realize how much the government controlled or supported our basic lives. We also realized how much we are interrelated with other societies and countries. We go abroad—temporarily or longer—for various reasons—to study, to work, and to reunite with friends or family. On the other hand, some people had to leave their home country against their own wills to be drafted into the army in the wartime or to support family as always. They lost their homes and suffered from discrimination and hatred; sometimes they settled down in the unfamiliar land. While allocating limited resources such as vaccines and masks, there happened screening and exclusion between nationals and immigrants, then hatred toward the strangers and harsh discrimination were followed.


In society after the pandemic, how could we deal with the nationality and identity in this multi-national society? There have been people who have multiple cultural backgrounds from the past. Once they were considered to be "in-between" and were doubting their identity, they were sometimes requested to choose one of them. To define one's national identity more inclusively, we need a more multi-layered approach. For the upcoming generation, we could find that they are refraining from their own identity. They put themselves in a wider context instead of one.


You can find works that deal with various situations, such as colonial rule and independence, migration for labor, and the identity and conflict of the generation following migration, and hear the stories of the artists of the works.


This forum will open a dialogue with these works on the relationship between an individual and his/her country, on the aftermath of war, and on the discrimination due to nationality.
