Exploring themes of identity, originality, geopolitics and Blackness through a historical lens, the new Frieze Masters Podcast is now available. The fourth episode features artist Zadie Xa in conversation with Vivien Zhang⁠ ⁠ Presented in partnership with Whitechapel, the talk explores Xa’s new exhibition as they reflect on ideas of cultural identity, the gentrification of symbols, and disparities between static and performance art. Listen now on frieze.com, Spotify and Apple Music⁠ ⁠ ‘People who I think have a connection to – or are from – East Asia, they look at my work, or look at that work, and they’re like ‘What is this?’. This looks like a Western interpretation of what they think is ‘Asian’ and I think a lot of people who didn’t have that experience or are from the West looked at it like: ‘This is a very Asian artist’. So, I liked playing with those things because it meant I was trying to confuse that language or that reading.’ – Zadie Xa ⁠ ⁠ #FriezeMasters #FriezeMastersPodcast #ZadieXa
