COVID-19 is upon us, travel is restricted, temperatures are screened, events are cancelled, but NTU CCA IdeasFest 2020 will go on… via live stream. Themed Solidarity with Nature, the seminar programme features presentations and dialogues between local and international artists and community leaders on topics such as capitalism and the extreme self (Ho Rui An and Shumon Basar), ecofeminism and community (Marwa Arsanios) and archives as commons (Heman Chong). The full schedule is below.
On 22 February, 10am to 10pm (GMT+8), the seminar will be livestreamed at this link.
After it has played, the 12-hour programme will run again at the same link – the idea is that whatever time zone you are in, you will be able to tune in to the programme you want.
NTU CCA Ideas Fest 2020 is guest-curated by IdeasCity, New Museum, New York. ArtReview is exclusive arts media partner.
