Transcultural global artists



Since artists are also - or at least aim to - become part of an dynamic global exchange of material and immaterial goods, it isn't possible to define their work as regionally impregnated only, it requires rather to look on specific local phenomena they present for a wide or even global audience. To define the addressee of an artwork becomes a complex task. A way to determinate these in concrete, can be studying on one hand the artworks in their exhibition context and on the other, their iconographic references and their remedialization of historic events. Concerning the works Re:looking (2002) and Days of our lives (2009) both aspects should be studied:
Sook Ching (1991) and Doghole (2010) deal more with the second aspect of remedialization.
