DESCRIPTION:RATES OF EXCHANGE Un-Compared:CONTEMPORARY ART IN BANGKOK

 e exhibition of art from Bangkok and Phnom Penh. This exhibition will 
 travel to SA SA BASSAC gallery in Phnom Penh in January 2015.Rates of 
 Exchange, Un-Compared is the result of a 6-month project of public pro
 grams, meetings and artist residencies that steadfastly skirts a parti
 cular way of looking at and conceptualizing contemporary art from thes
 e two cities. Ideas of the nation-state, comparative histories and the
  economic and institutional currency of geography, among other typical
  or potential frameworks, are held in critical relief. As the title su
 ggests, this project considers the cost[s] of distinct frameworks for 
 approaching and disseminating knowledge of contemporary art; instead, 
 the project will explore unpredictable relationships between artists a
 s part of a discursive inquiry into current art from both cities.The c
 hoice of Bangkok and Phnom Penh is announced as arbitrary, drawing out
  differences and diversities as means of looking at contemporary art i
 n the region and otherwise. Of course, potential comparisons do exist;
  Cambodia and Thailand share a large national border, are constitution
 al monarchies, hold a belief system based on animism and Theravada Bud
 dhism and are economically reliant on tourism and manufacturing. Moreo
 ver, the contemporary development of both cities functions in extreme 
 contrast to other parts of their respective countries. Nevertheless, t
 he project refuses any claim to represent or address similarities or d
 ifferences between Bangkok and Phnom Penh; in short, it insists on the
  critical value of their remaining deliberately ‘un-compared’.Rate
 s of Exchange, Un-Compared activates connections between artists, cura
 tors and galleries from Bangkok and Phnom Penh. Participants are at di
 fferent levels of their careers, work in varying contexts and carry di
 verse ambitions. A premise of the project is that dialogue between the
 m has been slight to date. But Rates of Exchange, Un-Compared insists 
 on the multiplicity of meanings inherent not only in a given art ‘wo
 rld’ and geographical location but also within artists’ practices.
 Rates of Exchange, Un-Compared is funded by the Australia Council for 
 the Arts and curated by Roger Nelson and Brian Curtin.\n\nFor more inf
