Open Call: Fables in Form

Asian Art Contemporary invites submissions for the virtual exhibition Fables in Form, a showcase where contemporary Asian artists explore the interplay between narrative and visual form. The exhibition considers how stories—personal, cultural, or imagined—are shaped not only by their content but also by the way they are expressed through artistic practice. Paintings, drawings, and other works carry traces of memory, gesture, and context, transforming form into a vessel for storytelling.

Situated Stories

Asian Art Contemporary is pleased to announce an open call for submissions to the upcoming virtual exhibition, Situated Stories. This exhibition examines how narratives emerge through context, storytelling, and the application of medium in artistic practice. Contemporary Asian artists worldwide are invited to submit works that engage with this theme—whether through personal histories, cultural memory, or experimental approaches to narrative.

Artist Carol Paik and curator Phil Zheng Cai have been invited as jurors for this open call. They will select works that best embody the curatorial vision of the exhibition and its commitment to presenting diverse voices in contemporary Asian art.

Open Call: Rhythms of the Unseen

Asian Art Contemporary is pleased to announce an open call for submissions to our upcoming virtual exhibition, Rhythms of the Unseen. We welcome contemporary Asian artists worldwide to submit works aligned with this theme.

Open Call: Mirrors and Masks

Asian Art Contemporary is pleased to announce an open call for submissions to our upcoming virtual exhibition, Mirrors and Masks. We welcome contemporary Asian artists worldwide to submit works aligned with this theme.

This exhibition explores how we present ourselves versus how we see ourselves, playing with the concept of identity, performance, and the masks we wear—whether literal or metaphorical. We seek artworks that delve into the tension between public and private identities, and the personas we construct to navigate societal expectations.
