This is an English-language episode, recorded live at the 2024 Migration Matters Festival.
As part of an ongoing initiative focusing on art producers, this episode centres on the theme of space, considering art workers such as theatre producers and curators as the makers and keepers of these spaces. What kinds of opportunities and experiences have shaped their work? What does space represent to them within the context of art? How does artistic space intersect with society? And as audiences, artists, policy planners, and implementers, what kinds of spaces do we need?
In this live panel, three ESEA (East and Southeast Asian) curators and producers share their insights on the narratives and spaces of minority groups in their respective fields of film, theatre, and visual art, within the broader framework of British contemporary art. The discussion also highlights several key events, including the Defund CFCCA campaign, and concludes with an open Q&A session.
本期節目為英語論壇，錄製於2024年移民之事藝術節(Migration Matters Festival)。
延續的藝術製作人的脈絡，本次訪談從空間為主題出發，把藝術工作者，如戲劇製作人與策展人，視為空間的創造者與守護者切入。他們是以什麼樣的機緣和經歷？對他們來說空間在藝術的框架下意味著什麼? 藝術的空間之於社會又有什麼樣的關係？作為觀眾、藝術家、政策規劃與執行著，我們又需要什麼空間？
這個現場分享邀請到三位東亞裔策展人與製作人，在各自的電影、戲劇、視覺藝術的領域探索少數群體中自身的敘事與空間，並梳理了英國當代藝術脈絡裡面，東亞藝術家爭取自己空間的幾個重要事件，包括CFCCA的的defund，最後開放觀眾提問。
