APT1 performance / Heri Dono: The Chair

'The 1st Asia-Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art' (APT1) is the first project of its kind in the world to focus on the contemporary art of Asia and the Pacific. The Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art (APT) is QAGOMA's flagship international contemporary art event, and the only major exhibition series in the world to focus exclusively on the contemporary art of Asia, the Pacific and Australia.
In undertaking the APT, the Gallery recognises the need for an ongoing series of exhibitions and forums which will initiate dialogue on the art of this important geo-political region. The Gallery worked closely with advisors and selectors from Australia and across the region to bring the Triennial to fruition.
APT1 featured nearly 200 works by 76 artists from South-East Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, The Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam); East Asia (China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea) and the South Pacific (New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Australia).
