In early August, the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC) obscured the names of several artists in addition to removing and modifying multiple works in an ongoing group exhibition following pressure from the Chinese Embassy in Thailand. Following a July 27 visit by Chinese embassy officials and Bangkok Metropolitan Administration representatives (BACC’s primary funder), the institution redacted the names of Hong Kong artists Clara Cheung and Gum Cheng Yee Man, Tibetan artist Tenzin Minguyur Paldron, and Uyghur artist Mukaddas Mijit. Their works were either taken down or partially concealed: Uyghur and Tibetan flags in Paldron’s mixed-media installation were blacked out, while a graphic by Liz Hee, which compared China’s treatment of Muslim populations with Israel’s, was removed. During another visit on August 6, the embassy officials demanded the removal of another flyer from Paldron’s installation and urged the center to adhere to the One China policy. Rather than removing any names, we will place a black tab over the affected entries—serving as a statement itself and leaving the interpretation open to the public.”
