Yang Tiange, born in 1993 in Henan, China, graduated from the Fudan University with a bachelor of arts in English literature, and the University of Melbourne with a master of art curatorship. He is Associate Curator and Director of Art Residency Program at the Inside-Out Art Museum, Beijing. As curatorial assistant, he participated in the preparation, research and making of the exhibitions at the Inside-Out Art Museum since 2017, including: Salon, Salon: Fine Art Practices From 1972 To 1982 In Profile - A Beijing Perspective, Self-Criticism, Discordant Harmony: Observations Of Artistic Practices In East Asia At The Transition Between The 1980s And The 1990s, Crescent: Retrospectives of Zhao Wenliang and Yang Yushu, and Dancing Notes: New Works by Pang Tao. Recently, he curated an exhibition, Stacks of Paper, Riot of Color: The Politics of Taste, for the new episode of the "Inside-Out Practice" at the museum.
Together with the artworks by 19 artists, the exhibition discusses the questions of how art can genuinely engage with society without losing its autonomy under the new social and artistic context (specifically in China) by emphasizing the documentary and interpretative function of art when media and internet censorship is on the rise, and it challenges as well as critiques the prevalent phenomenon in the practice of art museums in recent years where knowledge production is ignored and the aura of taste prevails.
