Fiona Tan has occupied a pivotal position with­in contemporary art since the late 1990s; her moving-image and photographic artworks are familiar from many key international biennials and exhibitions. Fiona Tan explores history and time and our place within them, working within the contested territory of representation. Deeply embedded in all of Fiona Tan's work is her fascination with the mutability of identity, the deceptive nature of representation, and the play of memory across time and space in a world ­increasingly shaped by global culture. This exhibition catalogue has been - together with a similar titled reader - published on the occasion of Tan's extensive retrospective, presented concurrently at the Museum der Moderne Salzburg (31.10.2020 to 02.05.2021) and Kunsthalle Krems (21.11.2020 to14.02.2021). The catalogue discusses the works drawn from two decades shown across both venues, including the newly com­missioned video works GRAY GLASS and PICKPOCKETS.
