The HUGO BOSS ASIA ART, a new biennale award initiated by HUGO BOSS and Rockbund Art Museum, takes special focus on contemporary art in Asia to think, invent and represent the social, economical and cultural changes of Asia in a post-global era.
The inaugural edition of this prestigious award recognizes the works of Chinese emerging contemporary artists and will feature finalists in a group exhibition from which a winner will be selected. Meanwhile, HUGO BOSS ASIA ART activates an on-going research platform re-mapping the contemporary art in Asia with symposia, dialogues, lectures and publications, presenting, reflecting and contributing to the radical transformation and evolvement of art in this region.
Entitled ASIA ART MUTATIONS: LANGUAGE AND SOCIAL PRACTICE, this symposium sets out to address the challenges of art practices in Asia of this time. Among them, the questions of the language and social practice in the art have become eminent. In these two terms we wishes to analyze how the art in Asia demonstrates the richness and diversities of its areas, how specific, active,critical and powerful are its qualities, how contemporary art in Asia explores its own long and rich traditions, also its continuous, dynamic interactions between local and international contexts and forces,. This is one of the most exciting and beautiful facets of the art in Asia today which however generates complex questions and demands in-depth probes from all possible angles.
Taking advantage of the strong resource from the jury committee of the HUGO BOSS ASIA ART but also complemented by curators, artists and scholars active in this area, this symposium sets up 4 units of round table discussions to bring up the challenges:
1) The media of art in Asia, the specificities and politics
2) Framing contemporary art and identity
3) The performativity and its contexts
4) Social intervention, as a means and as an end
With its wide-ranged and strong professional participants, this symposium presents a rare opportunity for critical reflecting and exchanges on the challenging issues of Asia art from both local and global perspectives. Together with the preceding and following curator dialogues, artist talks, presentations and performances, as well as the publications under the framework of Hugo Boss Asia Art education program, this symposium constitutes an important part of the on-going endeavour of the Award and Rockbund Art Museum to re-presenting and re-mapping Asia art.

亚洲艺术变革：语言和社会实践
HUGO BOSS亚洲艺术大奖是由HUGO BOSS和上海外滩美术馆联合创立的全新奖项，旨在关注后全球化时代中当代艺术对亚洲社会、经济、文化变化的思考、创造和呈现。本奖项每两年举办一次。
这项奖项的首次评选聚焦于来自大中华区域的新锐艺术家，大奖得主将从七位入围艺术家中选出。同时，HUGO BOSS亚洲艺术大奖将建立一个旨在重新描绘亚洲的研究平台，通过开展研讨会、对谈、讲座和印刷出版等方式，持续展示、反映和促进亚洲地区艺术的根本转型和演化。
本次论坛主题为“亚洲艺术变革：语言和社会实践”，着眼于当下亚洲艺术实践面临的挑战，尤其关注艺术中的语言和社会实践问题。我们希望通过这两个特殊的视角，探讨亚洲艺术创作如何体现这个地区的丰富性和多样性，而它本身又如何兼具特殊性、活跃性、批判性和富有力量。我们也讨论亚洲的当代艺术如何挖掘和利用该地区悠久而深厚的历史传统，同时又与本土和国际的语境和要素展开持续有力的互动交流。虽然这要求我们从所有可能的角度对其展开深度研究，也涉及一些复杂问题产生出来，但是这依旧是时下亚洲艺术最令人激动并富有魅力的方面之一。
本次论坛将充分利用HUGO BOSS亚洲艺术大奖评委会的丰富智力资源，同时也邀请在本领域活跃的策展人、艺术家和学者共同参与讨论。
论坛设置四个单元：
艺术媒介：亚洲的特殊性和政治性
构建当代艺术及身份认同
表演性及其语境
社会介入：作为手段和作为目
在大范围和强大的专业人士参与下，本次论坛是一次在本土和全球的双重视野下对亚洲艺术所面临的挑战进行批判性反思和交流的难得机会。作为HUGO BOSS亚洲艺术大奖教育计划的一部分，本次论坛与之前和之后持续开展的策展人对谈、艺术家对话、讲座、演出等教育活动和系列出版物一起，构成本次大奖和上海外滩美术馆对于重新呈现和重新定位亚洲艺术所做努力的重要一环。
