with an important history of
Shamanism and Buddhism,
and a new economic reality of
globalization where the use of
natural resources threatens its very
existence.
Traditions of herding across
vast and beautiful terrains with a
life connected to nature, ancestry
and the spiritual world is seen as
heaven by many. A door to another
type of heaven is the creation of
wealth that exploits the same land
for mining, construction, goat
breeding for cashmere and trading.
But is the country disappearing
between these two biospheres?
Through film, installation,
sculpture and sound, the artists
from across generations, question
Mongolias future. The exhibition
alludes to human nature and
its effect upon society and the
environment. While the context is
uniquely Mongolian, the impacts
are global and universal.
Artists selected to present
Mongolia at 57th Venice Art
Biennale are Sh.Chimeddorj,
O.Enkhtaivan, G.Munkhbolor,
J.Bolortuvshin and Ts.Davaajargal.
Exhibition will open on 9 May,
2017 to continue till 26 November
2017 in Venice, Italy.
