RED SANDS

Post author By admin
Post date September 2025

On the notorious border of El Paso, Texas and Cd. Juárez, Mexico, an off-road culture thrives in the untamed dunes of the Chihuahuan desert. Red Sands is about the singular identity of an intergenerational community and the scene they’ve created in a desert known for its red hues. The Mexican-American population finds solace through off-roading, using the desert dunes as a canvas to imprint their unique identities. The film follows characters from the past and present reflecting on their journey while headlines of danger loom overhead, threatening the very space in which their identity is rooted. Red Sands pulls the viewer into an exhilarating never-before-seen world, highlighting the resilience and beauty in a place mostly unknown to outsiders.

Christopher Kulendran Thomas's 𝘉𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘏𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯 considers the rise of Sri Lankan contemporary art in the wake of the country’s decades-long civil war, which ended with a massacre of Tamil civilians in 2009. The installation brings together Kulendran Thomas’s own works with artworks he purchased from galleries in Sri Lanka’s capital, Colombo.

NO HISTORY 5

Post author By admin
Post date June 2019

Opening with the myth of spirits summoning projectionists to initiate an outdoor film projection, artist Korakrit Arunanondchai’s dynamic film is charged with the idea of community — among humans and non-humans — in Thailand’s contemporary moment of instability. Boys trapped in a cave trigger a reflection on the geopolitics of the region and the fragility of its history.The recurring central character, a fictional Thai painter, is depicted in situations that reflect the interaction between traditional beliefs, the natural environment, and developments in the technology, politics, and culture of a changing Thailand. The sculptural installation presented in the Central Pavilion is a series of ‘post-natural’ tree-like forms, while the Arsenale hosts a three-screen installation made with Alex Gvojic (1984, USA).

GROUND ZERO

Post author By admin
Post date July 2018

Projected onto a large transparent screen bisecting the Schinkel Pavillon, the film Being Human (2019) forms a three-dimensional hypertext for a collection of original paintings and sculptures by some of Sri Lanka’s foremost contemporary artists, purchased from one of the capital Colombo’s most influential commercial galleries and presented by Thomas and Kuhlmann as a show-within-a-show. Shot in Sri Lanka, their film traverses documentary and fiction. It features Thomas’ uncle (a family hero who founded the Centre for Human Rights in Tamil Eelam), a well-known painter, a famous pop star and a young Tamil artist—some of them algorithmically synthesized characters—who take the viewer on an elliptical journey around the island, from the fallout of the Sri Lankan Civil War to the biennale founded in its aftermath. Exploring the interrelationship between contemporary art and human rights in an era of technological acceleration, Ground Zero reflects upon issues of individual authenticity, collective sovereignty and what it means to be "human" when machines are able to simulate human understanding ever more convincingly.

PAINTING WITH HISTORY 4

Korakrit Arunanondchai combines music, video, painting, and performance in his ongoing explorations of cultural hybridity, technology, spirituality, and local mythologies. Stylistically, his films embrace the allures of music videos: They combine otherworldly visuals (some of which are shot via drone), quick cuts, and pulsing soundtracks. They take inspiration from the artist’s family and friends, contemporary issues in America and Thailand, and the supernatural. Arunanondchai has also created installations to showcase these works and made paintings inspired by the television show Thailand’s Got Talent.
