MACA is pleased to design and initiate the voguing dance workshop series “MACA IS BURNING” during the An Atlas of the Difficult World exhibition period. The inaugural workshop, “Evolution of the Ballroom and Voguing: A Tale of Yesterday and Today” will take the cultural origin and stylistic evolution of the ballroom scene as the entry point, providing an opportunity for participants to experience the bodily glamour of voguing as well as the spirit of resistance embodied in the dance.
Featuring works across various mediums by 20 artists of different nationalities and spanning multiple generations, the exhibition is a tentative response to the tumultuous and unfathomable conditions of today’s world, illustrating the deep-seated conflicts and anxieties of the times we live in while at the same time, summoning a hope sparked by individual activism and creativity.
MACA is honored to collaborate with Reading International, Swiss publisher OnCurating after Chris Zhongtian Yuan's solo exhibition No Door, One Window, Only Light at Macalline Center of Art in 2023.
