The Spring 2024 edition of ArtReview Asia showcases a variety of artistic approaches.

She is currently exhibiting at both the Queens Museum and Para Site. South Korean artist Kim Heecheon explores the intersections of material and virtual realms using AI and augmented reality in his commission for the Hayward Gallery. The issue also pays tribute to Taiwanese artist Wang Ya-Hui, who passed away last year at the age of fifty. Glenn Ligon's inaugural exhibition in Hong Kong will open on March 25 at Hauser & Wirth, focusing on themes of race and identity.
