ASEAN Culture House is pleased to present To A Faraway Friend: Beyond Afro-Southeast Asian Affinities, the second collaborated exhibition with the ASEAN Foundation, as part of the KONNECT ASEAN supported by the AKCF (ASEAN-ROK Cooperation Fund). Based on the re-constructed international situation after the World War II, the exhibition highlights the regional exchange made between Africa and Southeast Asia, and the attempts of affinities extended toward Korea. A result of the long-term research by three curators from Korea, Singapore and Philippines, many archives referring to specific moments in history, as well as the contemporary artworks of 15 artists from ASEAN and Korea are included. Along with the painting, sculpture, media works, the exhibition will offer audiences with the opportunity to examine the history beyond the ordinary geographical factors and view the regionalism of the Southeast Asia, in the light of geopoetical (metaphorical geopolitics) perspectives
