This Is Not Just Local: Tactical Practices

Busan Museum of Contemporary Art, Busan, South Korea
24 Feb - 27 July 2024

This Is Not Just Local: Tactical Practices explores and reconfigures the meaning of locality beyond the hierarchical formula of center and periphery. By presenting shared practices of one another’s experiences, encounters, and alliances through the concept of “tactics,” drawn from studies of war, the exhibition investigates a subset of themes such as Strategic point_the rumored spot, Embodied memory, Network into the future, That landscape as it always were, Anxiety-Coordination-Coexistence, Sense of Boundaries, and Polyphonic speaking. Tactics refer to the readjustment of assigned cultural structures, through which the exhibition aims to investigate questions, experiences, attitudes, and zeitgeists that are connectively derived beyond geopolitical locales rather than being tethered to geographic places.
