New show at the He Xiangning Art Museum in Guangdong: The Ecstasy of Time: Reframing the Medium of Knowing.
Within time, man is no longer the starting point for information, but has become at various times the recipient, indicator, code, and medium supporting informantion, and sometimes the information itself. This view of time redefines human plasticity—a sort of mechanism for establishing communication and discernment, a moment in time that includes the past, present and future, much like the concept of "ecstasy" described by Martin Heidegger, which is therefore a material manifestation of the "authentic present." In this ever-accelerating space-time relationship that promotes globalization, how do we understand the resistant form of time?
