AMBIGUOUS BEING, as a videoart-library and filmprogram, presents works of artists from Taipei, Tel Aviv and Berlin. Political, social and cultural identities of the cities, as centers of controverse debates on the future of community values and society, are determinded, demanded and related by crucial boundary experiences and confrontations with the other. That has a deep impact on the local artistic and cultural practice. The exhibition highlights artworks that develope and stimulate relevant strategies of identity constrution by exploring the self and the other, the options of acting and suffering, ways of finding and inventing, the role of the conventional and the extraordinary against a background of colliding reality concepts. AMBIGUOUS BEING will be hosted by tamtamART Gallery (Berlin: June, 2nd to 30th), KAV 16 Community Gallery (Tel Aviv: July, 5th to 31st) as well as by the Hong Gah Museum (Taipei: August, 25th to September, 23rd ) on the occasion of TAIPEI BIENNAL. It is a collaboration of the curators Jia Zhen Tsai (Taipei), Sally Haftel Naveh (Tel Aviv) and Anett Vietzke (Berlin).
