In our daily lives, we are constantly confronted with a variety of boundaries. Ranging from the physical and psychological to the social and cultural, these diverse boundaries shape our behavior, ideas, and values. Artists, meanwhile, strive to dismantle existing frameworks and present new perspectives on things such as identity, culture, physical space, time, and genres. In this exhibition, we introduce a group of works from our collection that reexamine the state of what are termed “boundaries.” Exhibiting artists include Ming Wong, Arin Rungjang, Evelyn Taocheng Wang, Mika Tajima, Chikako Yamashiro, Christian Boltanski, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Danh Vo, and Wolfgang Tillmans.
