We are pleased to announce Fiona Tan's upcoming solo exhibition, Mountains and Molehills at the Eye Filmmuseum, Amsterdam.
Key works in the exhibition are Gray Glass (2020), Inventory (2012), and the new work Footsteps (2022), which Tan made at the invitation of Eye Filmmuseum. These video installations explore the relationship between the individuals on either side of the lens as well as the relationship between image, maker, and viewer.
In collaboration with nai010, Eye is publishing a book to accompany the exhibition. In an essay that reflects on how time and ways of looking and thinking converge in Tan’s work, Hanneke Grootenboer sets her art in a historical and philosophical context of image culture. The publication also includes essays and notes by the artist herself, which offer valuable insight into her vision and way of working.
Films, Talks and Events
A programme compiled together with the artist features film screenings, conversations and presentations in the Eye cinemas. In addition, on 20 October the Society of Arts and the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) are organizing a symposium on the work of Fiona Tan.
