Screening and Artist's Talk with Yang Fudong
Co-commissioned by M+ and Art Basel, and presented by UBS, Yang Fudong’s work with sound will premiere at M+ Cinema (House 1) at 15:00–16:30 on 23 March 2024, followed by an in-person conversation with the artist.
Co-commissioned by M+ and Art Basel, and presented by UBS, artist and filmmaker Yang Fudong’s work was shot in Hong Kong in January 2024. The black-and-white film weaves together scenes from seaside villages and nocturnal city streets. By referencing visual motifs and textures from classic Hong Kong cinema of the 1970s to the 1990s, Yang aims to evoke a sense of nostalgic familiarity. The work is also intended to function analogically as a short poem, blending moments from Hong Kong’s past and present to offer a glimpse into an unpredictable future.
