2013 Annual Report MAAP - Multimedia Art Asia Pacific Inc. 5

Director’s Foreword 20132013 – what a year for MAAP! MAAP was awarded the highest national accolade for Visual Arts at the inaugural ‘Australian Arts in Asia Awards’ and, as an organisation, was bluntly faced with radical funding changes in November.

2013 is MAAP’s sixteenth year of operation since first incorporating in1998. It is the eighth year of MAAP Media Bank AV lending service and the second full year of exhibition programming at MAAP SPACE in Brisbane, Australia.

While much of the year was absorbed in the development of MAAP’s forthcoming international touring exhibition ‘LANDSEASKY: revisiting spatiality in video’, there were many other artistic programs and activities that the organisation generated and participated in.

The exhibition program at MAAP SPACE began with Wang Gongxin’s piece, ‘Basic Colour’. The 5 screen projection filled the main space and we had great feedback on the work. We were very happy to present a powerful exhibition by Shilpa Gupta partnering with Frankendael Foundation in Amsterdam to redevelop technical aspects of Gupta’s interactive work. It was a rewarding opportunity to bring Shilpa to Brisbane and have her (all too briefly) here for the exhibition set up and public talk. Following closely, Yeondoo Jung, from Seoul, introduced audiences in Brisbane to his major video works.

The MAAP Media Bank enjoyed a boost through an injection of funds and borrowing has increased supporting more ARIs and emerging artists along with some surprisingly large institutions, including the Queensland Museum. MAAP hosted two formal mentorships, an internship, three artists’ residencies to develop new work, and supported artists more informally through consultation and technical support.

As Director, I was proud to represent MAAP at several national and international events, symposia and industry summits and of course enjoyed connecting and reconnecting with talented peers. A symposium in honour of Professor John Clarke was a highlight and reminder of our ongoing engagement with Asia.

I’d like to thank the staff and volunteers that contributed so much to our program this year – a particularly well skilled and talented group! Sincere thanks goes to MAAP Research and Program Manager Madeleine King who, after contributing for just over five years, leaves us to pursue her own creative projects. In the following pages please reflect my thanks onto each artist, writer, sponsor, and contributing partner. Finally, I’d also like to recognise the MAAP Board who have steadily guided the organisation to see it achieve great heights this year – thank you.

Sincerely,

Kim MachanDirector, MAAP - Media Art Asia Pacific

Executive Summary

MAAP moved into its second year of operating the MAAP SPACE program of exhibitons in Brisbane, at MAAP’s Fortitude Valley gallery space. Exhibitions by leading artists from China, Korea and Australia helped to bolster MAAP’s current programming focus in this region. The gallery program enabled MAAP to develop partnerships, support the development of new work, and raise its profile with audiences and professional networks both locally and overseas.

Catalogue publications continue to be produced for MAAP SPACE exhibitions, and in addition, MAAP launched a new publishing series called ‘Dinner for 2’ that engages writers critically with the exhibitions program.

MAAP Media Bank is in its seventh year of providing audio-visual equipment to local artists and arts organisations free-of-charge to assist in the creation and display of new work. The service provided $106,609 in support to the creative community in 2013, with a grand total of $1,168,594 contributed since it began in 2006. Additional support to emerging artists was provided through MAAP’s consultancy and mentorship. Two formal mentorships were conducted in 2013.

In 2013, MAAP has been developing the 2014 touring exhibition, LANDSEASKY, in partnership with a suite of museums and galleries in China, Korea and Australia. The tour commences in Seoul, with artworks to be displayed across the Artsonje Centre and six commercial gallery venues. The tour moves across to Shanghai at the OCAT Contemporary Art Terminal, and then concludes in Brisbane at the Griffith University Art Gallery. The project includes some of the leading video art practitioners in Australia, China and Korea, as well as some seminal 1970s video artworks by Dutch artist Jan Dibbets.

LANDSEASKY follows on from MAAP’s highly successful touring project Light from Light (2010-2012). This year, the Light from Light exhibition was the subject of the federal government’s newly launched Australian Arts in Asia Award. MAAP was nominated in 5 categories, and won the visual art award.

1. MAAP CORE BUSINESS

Daily operations were carried out from MAAP’s office, gallery and resources centre in Fortitude Valley, led by founding Director, Kim Machan (in the role since 1998). Research and Program Development Manager Madeleine King continued her role for a fifth year part-time. Jessica Row joined the team in 2014 as part-time Media Bank officer and gallery assistant. Eunju Kim commenced an internship position in August and worked on the development of the LANDSEASKY exhibition, providing Korean translation and project support. Four volunteers took up short-term placements over 2013 as part of the Bridgeworks program, offering a range of specialist skills including marketing, book-keeping, I.T. and design. MAAP also worked with a team of contractors throughout the year, including graphic designer Paul Bai and exhibition installer Troy Skews.

Financial and Accounting System

Jeanette Saez from All Figured Out Bookkeeping Ltd continued to keep the MYOB accounting system up to date, and Sandra Edmondson took over the position of MAAP’s part-time bookkeeper in November. Accounts are audited with Brian Tucker Accounting. Budgets and financial forecasting are overseen and reported to the board by MAAP Director Kim Machan and MAAP treasurer, David Allen. MAAP operates quarterly GST reporting.

Governance

Over 2013, the MAAP Board was kept in close contact with program developments, staffing arrangements, budgets and other pressing issues via regular meetings and email ‘flying minutes’. In the year there were 4 meetings that met or exceeded quorum (4 members). The Board’s ongoing evaluation of MAAP operations through ‘monitor-review-report’ strategy and ‘appreciative inquiry’ applied at Board meetings, ensures improved business operations.

2. MAAP CURATORIAL PROGRAMS, EVENTS & PROJECTS

2a. Australian Arts in Asia Award

In an important national acknowledgement of the exceptional work that MAAP produces in the Asia Pacific region, MAAP won the Visual Arts category of the high-profile Australian Arts in Asia Awards. The inaugural awards, presented in Sydney on Thursday August 1, “celebrate the achievements of Australian arts celebrate the important role Australian artists and arts organisations play in enhancing our relationship with Asian countries”.

MAAP’s 2010-2012 major China-Australia touring exhibition ‘Light from Light’ was nominated in five categories, which was the largest total of nominations for a single project at this year’s award ceremony. MAAP was the only award winner from Queensland.

The Australian Arts in Asia Awards acknowledge the work of Australian artists and arts organisations making important cultural links in Asia. There were 69 finalists nominated across 14 categories this year, with MAAP nominated for visual art, innovation, partnerships, digital and film and small to medium organisation.

Light from Light was an international touring exhibition of contemporary art from Australia and China. This project spanned from 2010-2012, visiting five major libraries and art museums in Shanghai, Beijing, Hangzhou and Brisbane. The exhibition featured artworks themed around the idea and properties of light, as interpreted by world-renowned Australian, Chinese and international artists. A collection of light-inspired and light-generating artworks was displayed throughout library collection spaces, reading rooms and public areas of the library venues, including the National Library of China, Shanghai Library, Hangzhou Public Library and State Library of Queensland. A solar-powered geodesic dome, commissioned from respected Melbourne artists Janet Burchill and Jennifer McCamley, was installed as a temporary public artwork at each library site, and visited the popular National Art Museum of China. The Light from Light artists were (from Australia) Archie Moore, Eugene Carchesio, Grant Stevens, David Haines, Joyce Hinterding, Janet Burchill, Jennifer McCamley, (from Europe) Josef Strau, (from China) Zhang Peili, Wang Peng, Pak Sheung Chuen, Lin Tianmiao and Wang Gongxin.

2b. MAAP SPACE

MAAP SPACE, MAAP’s gallery venue and exhibition program based in Fortitude Valley, was launched in August, 2012. With additional funding from the Visual Arts and Craft Strategy, the space is MAAP’s Brisbane hub for exhibitions, artist and curatorial residencies, and public programs as well as the MAAP operations and resources centre.MAAP SPACE exhibitions are designed to extend MAAP’s domestic and international market reach. They leverage the connections established for our international touring programs, and the opportunities presented by our exchanges with curators and artists in the region. In this way, Queensland audiences gain close access to the international artists and curators that we engage with through our research, networks, and international exhibition development. In its second year, MAAP SPACE presented three solo exhibitions by Asian artists, and three residency projects with Australian artists, each detailed below. The program has been positively received by local audiences, who appreciate the exceptional quality of work on display, and the specialized expertise that MAAP brings to the presentation of art from the Asia Pacific.

MAAP SPACE EXHIBITION 1Wang Gongxin, 22/3/2013 - 26/4/2013

Wang Gongxin has a significant place in contemporary Chinese art history. As a senior first generation video artist in China, Wang has produced an accomplished body of work over the past twenty years and has had great influence on a younger generation of artists within China. Two related works were presented in this solo exhibition – Basic Colour, 2010 and Tonight Maybe Have Wind, 2006. Both works employ a form of landscape and explore an extraordinary aesthetic experience of time within the medium of video. Presenting Basic Colour was a significant technical achievement for MAAP, as the work was a large 5-channel video installation that relied on precise video synchronisation. Many visitors remarked how impressed they were with the polish and finesse of this video in particular.

This was the first time the work has been shown in Australia and MAAP is one of the few international venues to show the work. This work was a highlight of the landmark exhibition ‘20 Years of Video Art in Shanghai’ at the Minsheng Art Museum. Local curators of Asian art, including Russel Storer from QAGOMA, came especially to see the work, and were grateful for the opportunity to see recent work by this important Chinese artist. Real Time magazine headlined the work in an electronic bulletin and wrote a print review.

MAAP SPACE EXHIBITION 2Shilpa Gupta, 26/7/2013 - 30/8/2013

Indian conceptual artist Shilpa Gupta presented four major works at MAAP SPACE in a solo presentation of video, sculpture and installation work. Launching her career in 1997, with a strong focus on media and interactive art, Gupta’s work has come to be internationally regarded for its commentary on the intertwining of the political and the personal across a vast range of contemporary issues.

As part of the exhibition, Shilpa Gupta visited MAAP SPACE to install her work and present a talk. Her visit was an important networking opportunity for Australian curators and arts organisations, as well as for the artist in creating new markets in Australia.

MAAP presented a group of technically accomplished new media and video artworks, in what was one of the more challenging installations undertaken in MAAP SPACE. The interactive sound installation Speaking Wall (2009-2010), activated by motion sensor, was the most complex. MAAP partnered with art museum Huize Frankedael in Amsterdam to commission an upgrade of Speaking Wall. To achieve this, MAAP collaborated with the artist, an independent technician and the Museum on the technical development of the new edition of the work. MAAP then coordinated with the artist and gallery technicians in Amsterdam to document the installation of the work and resolve a number of idiosyncratic technical issues post-installation.

Shilpa was extremely pleased with the technical support MAAP provided for this work, along with others in the exhibition. The video work One Hundred Hand Drawn Maps of India (2007-2012) required rescaling to meet the dimensions of the space. The artist reported that this was the best way that the work had ever been presented. The artist was excited about the selection of works, and they way that they were presented together in the one space. Although the works had been installed in a number of gallery environments internationally, she felt the opportunity to experiment further with their display whilst at MAAP helped to reinvigorate them.

MAAP SPACE EXHIBITION 3Yeondoo Jung, 27/9/2013 - 8/11/2013

MAAP invited South Korean artist Yeondoo Jung to create his first solo exhibition in Australia. Two of his video artworks were shown: Documentary Nostalgia and Twilight Seoul. Documentary Nostalgia has received considerable international attention, however, Twilight Seoul is a lesser-known work. Both employ his trade-mark DIY sensibility, whereby he constructs elaborate artificial environments often from simple materials at hand. The works are extremely engaging, and at 1hr 20mins, it was a testament to the quality of the work that a number of dedicated audience members stayed to watch Documentary Nostalgia in its entirety. MAAP tried to create a comfortable, almost cinematic, environment to view this work in, projecting it at the full height of one of the gallery walls, and providing a darkened space with beanbags. Despite the artist’s strong international profile, many in Brisbane were unfamiliar with his work, and were very excited to become initiated with it. Local curators were particularly receptive of this opportunity to access some of the most exciting contemporary artwork to emerge from South Korea in recent years.

The exhibition was the subject of a critical review in Eyeline magazine.

MAAP SPACE RESIDENCY 1Derek Kreckler, 24/8/2013 - 3/9/2013Open Studio Event, 30/08/2013

Sydney based artist Derek Kreckler participated in a MAAP artist-in-residence project in Brisbane, August 2013. During his time with MAAP he was developing a series of new works for MAAP’s upcoming major touring exhibition LANDSEASKY, which will visit China, South Korea and Australia in 2014. His intensive period of experimentation during the residency, which began in early 2013, culminated in a one night only public presentation at MAAP SPACE on 30 August 2013.

Derek’s assistant, Jenny Chubby, actively participated in the residency project. Jenny, an emerging artist, also shot several video pieces for her own practice while in Brisbane.

MAAP SPACE RESIDENCY 2Barbara Campbell, 11/11/2013 - 20/11/2013

Barbara Campbell is an established artist based in Melbourne who is also featured in MAAP’s upcoming LANDSEASKY exhibition. She used her residency at MAAP SPACE to test projections for a new video installation. During her residency she was assisted by media specialist and artist Gary Warner, who filmed and provided other technical support. She was thrilled with the outcomes of the residency, and reported on how important it was to receive feedback from exhibition curator Kim Machan as the work progressed. Barbara also commented on the accelerated development of her work through the intensive process of the residency.

MAAP SPACE RESIDENCY 3Paul Bai, August & November, 2013

Brisbane based artist Paul Bai undertook a MAAP residency that gave him equipment and space to develop his work for the ‘LANDSEASKY’ exhibition. He filmed, and made test projections in MAAP adjoining space in August and November 2013. Paul commented that access to a space where the work could be considered in full scale was of great benefit in the development process.

2c. Exhibition Project LANDSEASKY: revisiting spatiality in video

2013 was an important year of project development, with preparations for MAAP’s 2014 touring exhibition LANDSEASKY: revisiting spatiality in video. The project sees some of the most interesting and challenging video artworks from more than 18 international contemporary artists travel to South Korea, China and Australia in a major Australia-Asia tour. The exhibition tours to Seoul, Shanghai and Brisbane across multiple prestigious museums and galleries in 2014.

Meditating on the motif of the horizon in sublime and complex ways, the exhibition features some of the world’s sharpest contemporary artists. Artists include Jan Dibbets (NL), Paul Bai (AU), Lauren Brincat (AU), Barbara Campbell (AU), Wang Gongxin (CN), Shilpa Gupta (IN), Zhu Jia (CN), Yeondoo Jung (KP), Derek Kreckler (AU), Heimo Zobernig (AT), Giovanni Ozzola (IT), Joao Vasco Paiva (PT/HK), Wang Peng (CN), Kim Sooja (KP), Craig Walsh (AU), Sim Cheol Woong (KP), Yang Zhenzhong (CN).

For this project, MAAP achieved project funding from Australia Council for the Arts and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (The Australia-Korea Foundation). Additional support is being provided by a network of partners in each country including the Australian Embassy Seoul and Australian Embassy Beijing.

LANDSEASKY has been in development for two years. It was initially conceived as a collaboration with the Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA) in 2011, and further developed as a MAAP curatorial residency in Seoul in 2012, where the project received input from curators at SeMA. New partnerships with a number of venues on Seoul, Shanghai and Brisbane were developed over 2013. In Seoul, MAAP developed a partnership and strong collaboration with leading curator Kim Sunjun at the Artsonje Center – the Center is now a major venue for the exhibition in Seoul. Sunjun helped to broker new partnerships with five leading commercial galleries. The exhibition will be spread across these 6 venues, allowing artists to have a generous space to work with, as well as new opportunities for market development in Korea.

MAAP has been working with Zhang Peili (a leading Chinese artist and long-standing MAAP collaborator) and curator Maria Graziaconstantino to develop the exhibition at OCAT Shanghai. MAAP’s Brisbane collaborator is Naomi Evans, Director of the Griffith University Art Gallery.

This project is designed to build dialogue with our Asian neighbours, and promote creative exchanges with artists and curators across the region. It aims to:

• create a new context for Australian artists in China and Korea• make opportunities for Australian artists to travel and gain new networks in China and

Korea• raise the profile of contemporary Australian video and new media art• refresh and revisit MAAP’s engagement and exchange with its Korean and Chinese artistic

networks (initiated since 1998)• strengthen MAAP’s profile in Korea and China• develop new partnerships with artists, curators and cultural institutions in Korea and China• create opportunities for future Korean and Chinese projects in Australia, and vice versa• share contacts and exhibition opportunities with other Australian cultural organisations

Shilpa Gupta 26 July – 30 Agust 2013

111 Constance Street, Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, Australia

+61 7 31088559 www.maap.org.au | [email protected]

Gallery opening hours: Tuesday to Friday 10am – 5pm

Indian conceptual artist Shilpa Gupta presents four major works at MAAP Space in a solo

presentation of video, sculpture and installation work. Launching her career in 1997, with a

strong focus on media and interactive art1, Gupta’s work has come to be internationally

regarded for its commentary on the intertwining of the political and the personal across a

vast range of contemporary issues.

Gupta is interested in human perception and how information, visible or invisible, is

transmitted and internalized in everyday life. Constantly drawn to how objects are de�ined

and how places, people, experiences are identi�ied, Gupta explores zones where these

de�initions are played out, be it borderlines, labels or ideas of censorship and security.

Though overtly political, Gupta avoids sensationalism by parsing her subject matter through

personal and private experience. Indeed, her work engages the viewer with intimacy,

dialogue and emotional intensity; direct but never didactic.

The artist’s recent work encompasses a wide range of materials including photographs,

video, interactive media, sculptural objects, websites and audio. Contemporary technologies

play an important role in Gupta’s practice, and her work demonstrates a wilful command

over both media and message. For example, her interactive sound installation Speaking Wall

(2009-2010), activated by motion sensor, plays to the authoritative nature of the medium.

The artist’s direct instructions to the viewer (move back/move forward) are spliced with a

poetic monologue on borders: both in the geopolitical sense, and with respect to the

delineation of space de�ined by the installation. The sense of distance, surveillance and

bureaucracy imposed by the electronic display is embraced and then displaced by the

artist’s contrasting use of instructional and conversational tone.

The two video works in the exhibition, Untitled (2012) and One Hundred Hand Drawn Maps

of India (2007-2012), are similarly sensitive in their use of space and medium. Both are very

intimate in scale, drawing the viewer in close (or in the case of Untitled, crouched to the

ground to meet the plane of the video) for the best vantage point. One Hundred Hand Drawn

Maps of India, a sparsely animated collection of drawings of the Indian map, draws us into

the complexities of manmade borders. The �inal work in the exhibition, a cloth

wall-hanging embroidered with machine-sewn stars titled Stars on Flags of the World

(2011- 2012), speaks to ideas of geographies, imagined communities and nationhood. In

her choice of form for this particular work the artist �louts any perceived allegiance to

digital media and instead heeds the material conventions of her subject matter, the �lag.

Over the past decade Shilpa Gupta has exhibited in numerous internationally signi�icant

exhibitions such as in the Daimler Contemporary, Berlin; Mori Art Museum, Tokyo; New

Museum, New York; Yvon Lambert, Paris; Solomon R Guggenheim Museum, New York;

Centre Pompidou, Paris; and has produced commissioned work for Tate Online, London.

There is no question that Gupta’s practice is international resonant, or that her work has a

“singular ability to touch its viewers”2.

1 Gupta trained in sculpture, started her practice with Installation, moved to interactive Installation, and then video and digital image,

however, her work also typically integrates low-tech materials found in everyday life, for example soap, string, bricks.

Media Art Asia Pacific

MAAP’s next exhibition in Brisbane continues a

focused series of leading media artists. Wang Gongxin

has a signi�icant place in contemporary Chinese art

history. As a senior �irst generation video artist in

China, Wang has produced an accomplished body of

work over the past twenty years and has had great

in�luence on a younger generation of artists within

China. Trained as a painter, Wang moved into video

and photography after an extended time living in New

York during the late 80’s and returning to live in Bei-

jing in 1994. Working across media, Wang explores

single channel video incorporated into sculptural

objects and installation, performative and multi

channel immersive moving image installations. A

hallmark of the artist’s practice is his rigorous

deliberation of imagery with great attention to the

technical execution and presentation.

In this exhibition two related works are presented –

Basic Colour, 2010 and Tonight Maybe Have Wind,

2006. Both works employ a form of landscape and

explore an extraordinary aesthetic experience of time

within the medium of video. Natural phenomena like

wind, rain, and falling snow or dust are appropriated

catalysts driving change within the works. Time, as a

crucial attribute of the video medium, is expressed and

experienced with two quite distinct approaches. In

Tonight Maybe Have Wind, we see a manipulation of

time through editing that stimulates thoughts about

linear time, natural time, electronic time, and our

perceptions of it. The image moves one hundred times

slower than normal for ten seconds and is then sped

up two hundred times faster for one second.

Basic Colour, is a �ive channel video installation

projected onto a continuous wall. The �ive projections

are orientated vertically; within each vignette, a tightly

framed section of the body is apprehended and set

against a neutral �lat empty space. The undulating

curves and creases of the body imply a landscape that

is abstracted further by the gradual sprinkling of

coloured pigments of black, blue, red, yellow and

white. The slow accumulation of coloured pigment on

each image is a kind of performance-based painting

that is both suspended and propelled through the

treatment of time and the looping of the video.

3. MAAP RESEARCH

MAAP SPACE Publications Initiative

The MAAP SPACE Publications Initiative encompasses the print and online material produced for the MAAP SPACE gallery program. For each exhibition project at MAAP SPACE over 2013, MAAP produced a small catalogue publication on a collectable A2 poster format. Materials are produced in a low-cost print format, and are distributed electronically as downloads from the MAAP web site. This material contributes to the short- and long-term legacy of the MAAP SPACE program, and is useful for promoting the program to our national and overseas networks.

Publishing series: ‘Dinner for 2’

MAAP’s new publishing series ‘Dinner for 2’ invites guest writers, curators and academics to attend MAAP SPACE exhibitions and develop a piece of critical writing in response. Two writers are provided a modest dinner in the gallery space amongst the exhibited artwork. The dinner setting promotes conversation between the writers and a fresh perspective on the exhibition.

MAAP launched this novel initiative in August 2013. Curators and experts on contemporary moving image works from Asia, Naomi Evans (Director, Griffith University Art Gallery) and Katherine Weir (Curator, QAGOMA), were the first participants and they dined at the Shilpa Gupta exhibition. The artist phoned in from India with specific instructions for the table setting, requesting that a small square of pepper be presented at the table. This instruction suggested the presence of the artist and gave pause for further reflection on the exhibition. Subsequently, Weir and Evans wrote a critical review of the exhibition and reported that the dinner expanded their experience of the artist’s work. Similarly, Reuben Keehan and guest were invited to dine and review at Yeondoo Jung’s exhibition in November. This series will be published online and MAAP will look to publish in the future as a collection of art criticism.

Critical dialogues

MAAP participated in three symposiums in 2013. In August, Kim Machan was invited as speaker on panel discussion at the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra, Urban Imaginaries in Asia, a joint venture between the National Portrait Gallery and Humanities Research Centre at ANU with Dr. Caroline Turner. While in Canberra, Caroline Turner and Michelle Antoinette, from ANU, also recorded an interview with Kim for a forthcoming book on cultural networks in the Asia Pacific region. In October, Kim was invited to participate in the West Bund 2013 Contemporary Art & Architecture Biennale. She was part of a roundtable discussion on ‘Public Performance Space and the Urbanisation Process’. This high-profile symposium was an excellent opportunity to establish new cultural networks in China. In November, Kim presented a talk at the Tilting the World: Histories of Modern and Contemporary Asian Art, A Symposium in Honour of Professor John Clark organized by the Power Institute, University of Sydney, and the Art Gallery of New South Wales. The discussion was themed around ‘Asia-Australia artistic engagement in practice’ and was chaired by Francis Maravillas, University of Technology, Sydney.

Also in 2013, MAAP contributed to a print publication for ‘Put up a Signal’, an Australia-Asia exchange project by Asialink and Bus Projects. Madeleine King contributed an essay on the history of MAAP’s video art exchange in the Asia Pacific region.

MAAP Media Bank supported Brisbane-based Artist-Run-Initiative Inhouse ARI with audio-visual equipment for their exhibition One and Other.


4. SECTOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

4a. MAAP Media Bank

The MAAP Media Bank offers a free, member-based loan program of audio-visual equipment to the local and national artistic community for exhibitions and project development. The service was started in 2006 with equipment repurposed from MAAP’s exhibition program to address the considerable and often prohibitive costs associated with producing and exhibiting media art.

Since 2006, MAAP has generated over $1,000,000 of value through free loans of audio-visual equipment to artists and has attracted funding and equipment donations since then to add to and maintain the Media Bank stock. MAAP Media Bank is the only free loan service of its kind in Australia, offering audio-visual equipment and consultation to the artistic community.

MAAP Media Bank supports projects of high artistic merit that align with MAAP’s own curatorial endeavours, with priority given to artist-run-initiatives and non-profit creative projects.

2013 Media Bank Loans

In 2013 MAAP Media Bank supported a total of 51 exhibitions nationally to a total value of $106,069. Of this, 44 exhibitions totalling $82,304 were based in Brisbane.

2013 has been a very busy year for MAAP’s Media Bank. After relocating from Southbank in 2012, MAAP Media Bank spent a full calendar year operating out of the larger and more suitable loan processing space at 111 Constance Street, Fortitude Valley. In March Jessica Row was employed as the permanent part-time Media Bank Officer, while in October MAAP was successful in applying to the Gambling Community Benefit Fund. Grant money received will go towards the maintenance of old and purchasing of new Media Bank equipment.

The above factors helped to facilitate the following in 2013:

• Generating one of the largest volumes of annual loans since the program commenced in 2006.

• Generating the largest number of national and touring loans with MAAP Media Bank equipment since the program commenced, facilitating exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Townsville & Newcastle.

• Facilitating the largest amount of arts festivals & creative conferences with MAAP Media Bank equipment since the program commenced, such as Bleach* Festival, Colourise Festival, EXIST-ENCE 5, Kultour Gathering, Brisbane Emerging Art Festival, Light on the Fringe, Lost Movements V & Containerval Festival.

• Influx of new members to the MAAP Media Bank Program who were met throughout the year at Induction evenings and MAAP Space exhibition openings.

MAAP Media Bank equipment helped Brisbane media artist Keith Armstrong to stage his sophisticated interactive installation Finitude at Artisan.


Feedback gathered at the completion of each loan process indicates that MAAP Media Bank continues to deliver a much-needed service to the artistic community whose projects may not have been as large-scale or be able to be executed at all without the use free audio-visual equipment through the Media Bank loan program.

The full details of loans and their values for 2013 is outlined in APPENDIX 1: MAAP Media Bank Loans Summary & Value.

JUMP mentorship

In 2013, MAAP participated in a fomal mentorship with Brisbane Artist Run Initiative, Vegas Spray.

The Australia Council’s JUMP Mentoring aims to make a positive impact on the early stages of a creative practitioner’s career, helping them gain networks, be inspired and exchange ideas while working on an applied mentorship with a mentor who helps them jump to the next level.

Vegas Spray worked with MAAP Director Kim Machan to develop a Sister City Artist Resdiency Program. The SCAR Program is a new residency platform which supports professional development and cultural exchange between artists and arts workers from Brisbane and Chongqing. Within the sister-city context, The SCAR Program comprised a six-week residency period (three weeks in Chongqing and three weeks in Brisbane) for artists based in Brisbane and Chongqing.

MAAP provided advice and guidance on developing cultural exchange projects, and assisted with venue development in Brisbane. MAAP was also able to expertly advise on protocols for working in China. As a result of this successful mentorship project, Travis Dewan from Vegas Spray returned to China to further develop opportunities in the region.

Macquarie Digital Portraiture Award mentorship

Kim Machan was one of the judges of the Macquarie Digital Portraiture Award in 2013. As part of the prize, MAAP is providing winner, Nick Lee, with a mentorship while he undertakes a residency at the Edge (State Library of Queensland) in 2013-2014.

Kim has been engaged in a series of meetings with Nick, critiquing his photographic and video portfolio to assist and prepare him in his application for a scholarship at a New York art school. MAAP will be available to support the artist throughout the 2013 holiday period, and into 2014.
