Accomplished documentarian and artist Amar Kanwar will speak to Professor Ute Meta Bauer, Founding Director of NTU CCA Singapore and Dr June Yap, independent curator and art historian, about his unique cinematic vocabulary that opens up multiple layers of experience and comprehension. The conversation will revolve around politics of power, violence and justice, looking at how political struggles are presented and represented as well as issues of development, misappropriation and displacement. When engaging in various ways of seeing and comprehending, a set of propositions given by Kanwar study the notion of “poetry as evidence”.
