Samia Halaby

Taipei Biennial 2023: Small World

We are pleased to announce the Samia Halaby’s participation in the Taipei Biennial 2023: Small World. 

 

At different points in the exhibition, the Taipei Biennial 2023 features four video works from a 2019 performance of the Kinetic Painting Group—the heading under which Halaby works with others to publicly perform her painting program—which transpose Halaby’s joyful painting sensibility into a domain of computational and geometrical precision. 

 

The effortless expressivity of Halaby’s kinetic paintings is tied to the spontaneity and unexpectedness of performance, but also reflect Halaby’s desire to create in a collaborative manner, transforming the traditionally solitary act of painting into a process more akin to a musicians’ jam session.
