Sites of Construction:
The moving image as a site of art historical construction

The documentary form has been employed in myriad ways to record the ecology of the art field, offering endless potential to create new stories, complicate old ones, and circulate them to an expanded audience. This screening series looks at how documentaries can shape the way histories of art can be constructed, remembered, mystified, and debated. The programme has been developed in partnership with selected Hong Kong institutions with an interest in film and art to reflect the diversity of interest, perspective, approach, and audience. Over 20 selected titles will be screened at multiple venues. This series will end in October to coincide with Asia Art Archive’s symposium ’Sites of Construction: Exhibitions and the making of recent art history in Asia.’
